been thinking hard about this before i wrote another entry in my journal. Now Ill write one, a with all things.. Im in physical pain.. and some days just worse than others.. however.. Ive been doing allot of praying allot of thinking and trying to get what our dear Lord has been trying to do with me.. their is a passage in the bible... about a piece of pottery that a person created.. and the Lord says bacily does the pottery say to its creator why have thou created me thus?? NO!! of course not.. so Ive been thinking.. also.. it says have joy.. thru your sufferings. I used to think.. how can anyone have Joy.. Lord when they are in so much..Pain.. or be happy?.. it says be happy.. in ones infermaties..also... to Be... more accurate.. Well after alot of soul searching.. and praying.. I think the means.. that .. that although we are in pain.. work thru it.. as the Lord can use our physical pain.. to make us a more humble and contrite spirit.. to show his love..to others.. through us.. if we can..accept his will.. and work though it.. and not question him.. It is not easy.. but I am working on this.. as our Lord.. wants us .. show his works and love for others and HIM..and spread his word through Us.. So as hard as this ..is.. I am with his help and alot of prayers trying to come to terms with my condition.. and accept that.. this is His will for me...because He cares.. and works on my ...humbling of my spirit... as is.. Trust Jesus... I believe.. no greater physical.. suffering was ever suffered greater than our Lord Jesus.. did for us... EVER...

So who am I?? to say Lord.. I can not take anymore of this physical pain?? after all Our Lords Son (jesus) did for us?? and endured??? I am working on this acceptance.. very very hard...... God bless you all.. Think OF jesus and what he went through to save us... It is SO little.. i can do.. to accept and obey without.. question our creator... SO Little... In our Lords plan for my life..... Dearest Lord in spite of my pain... May .....I remain ever humble in the sight of our lORD............ praise jesus for what HE did for us... I am and may I think of myself humbly oh Lord.. your servant.. til the end... and may I remain humble..as a tiny grain of sand.. on the beach... Ellen

  Ellen,
  
  I cannot imagine having physical pain 24/7. It must be awful and no words I could say would change it. Your messsage above hit it right on the nail. All God wants from us is a clean pot so that He can fill it each day with His love and comfort and then for you to take yourself the pot and take what God gave you and pour it out on others. It does not do any good to hace a clean pot filled by God and let it sit there. If you do not pour it out on others it will soon begin to sour our soul. We have to daily make sure our pot is clean first; then let God fill it with His Spirt; His love; and most of all His compassion.

  Psalms:40:2: He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
  Isa:29:16: Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no understanding?

  Yes..that is the passage. I read it many years ago. in the bible, when I was only 26, and was studying the bible. and since i did not have anything wrong with me then. I thought this does not apply to me.. when I got my condition, the start of it, when i was about 40 something. I went back and read it again.. It,s finally starting to make sense to me. Ive always wondered, knowing that , I would eventually get, worse.. and used to deny it. even to myself as my condition progress. its raynaud's and degenerative arthritis and now co,pd. Thank,you for answering this for me.. God bless you.. Ellen
