It'ssss Baaaaaack! MS is ravaging my body once again. I am frustrated and feel trapped.

The End..

When upon life's billows you are tempest tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
And you will be singing as the days go by.

When you look at others with their lands and gold,
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold.
Count your many blessings, money cannot buy
Your reward in heaven, nor your Lord on high.

So amid the conflict, whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey's end.

Today the cross is heavy to bear. I began singing this church hymn to redirect my thoughts and pain.

*1 year ago* Look how far I have come. I have been reading entries from 1 year ago and WOW! what a difference a few friends and 1 year will do. I am loving the fact that I can see how my strength has grown in just 1 year. I am seeing how we often find many of life's woes a curse but if we could only see 1 year ahead we would never say that. Bless yourselves with the desire to Journal so you can smile when you see how far you have really come.
