If there are any Christians out there who are looking for special support during this time I thought we could start a thread related to this. It might help with those thoughts and doubts as to if this is the right thing we are doing or any other 'shares' that might come to mind. I could use some at this time in my walk.

Sister in Christ,

Valerie

So glad to see all of you here! I prayed before I even called about the surgery and I said "Lord, if I am supposed to have this done, please let everything go really well, and with no problems" And, guess what, it all has gone exceptionally well, from the first plan to the surgery to now, and the 56 pounds I have dropped since April 07!!!!!! Like I always say "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine"!!!! Talk to you all soon.

My surgery will be on Monday Jan. 28 in Coos Bay, Oregon. Please pray that all will be well, and for travel mercies. Must travel about 60 miles over mountains and it's been a bit snowy. Until I get back

Well, well, well, I am just tickled pink about everyone. Welcome newbies.

Have you all heard a song (we use to sing it doing vacation bible school), "The more we get together, together, together, the more we get together the happier we'll be. Cause your friend is my friend and my friend is your friend, the more we get together the happier we'll be".

When I saw the new ones, all I could do was praise God for my friends. There is strenght in numbers. I pray for you all. I am so thankful for this thread.

Joyross, I pray for travel mercy and arrival grace. That God would control the hands of the surgeon, a speedy recover and that you would find EVERYTHING safe around and in your home just like you left it. In Jesus' name. Amen

Yes, I pray Joyross that the Lord will keep His hand on you and your surgeons and that everything will go according to His plan.

And, update on my friend with Leukemia -- at first the doctors said she had the worst kind and basically gave her a death sentence. Now they've ran more tests and say that she has the curable kind, and she has responded positively to her medicines this week. She went in the hospital on Wed. THANKS to everyone for your prayers and support for Patti.

Yes, praying that The Lord Bless you with every bit as easy a surgery and after that I have had!!!! And. to clear your path there and back!! Praise The Lord for his Blessings!!! And hi to all of you my new friends and Sisters in Christ, Blessing to all of you!!!! The main thing about all of it-stay positive!!!

Praise the Lord!!!!

I'm praying for all of you!! Please pray for me as I await approval!! I really feel like this is God's will for my life!!!!

will be praying for all of you. Don't know why it is so hard to wait on something! but, I know you can drive yourself crazy thinking about all the things that can go wrong. Just try to remember, Matthew chapter 6:25-26

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

Jaunderwood. I will be praying for you. I rember how I felt as I was going thru that very same situation. God Bless!

Joyross. I will be praying for you as you prepare for your surgery and that the Lord will direct the doctors during your surgery and that you will have a speedy recovery. God is so good!

By any chance can you eat pizza now? I was wondering if there is any hope that I can later on. I haven't tried it yet. God bless

You will probably want to avoid doughy pizza, but an occassional splurge with a thin crust might be okay. We once in a while will get a Domino's thin crust. Just don't go overboard with the pepperoni and cheese.... have lots of veggies on it.
