I'm so very exhausted these days, still working at a very physical job at 63 is not easy.
I have a knee that needs replacement, sleep apnea so that I haven't had a good nights sleep
in ten years and neuropathy so that I have constant pain in my legs in particular.
I am on various forms of medication for all these illnesses and it just takes all the good out of me.
I guess I'm asking for prayer or maybe just venting cause God doesn't seem to hear much these days.
I am super depressed and my knee was so bad I couldn't go to work today. Plus working in a nursing home these
days is very stressful we lost a lot of residents last year, many I knew personally.
I think all of these concerns have just destroyed me in so many ways and god well you tell me where he is cause I don't know.
I'm dead tired, depressed like Saul I need David's harp.

God's grace was sufficient for Paul; God's grace is sufficient for all. In this life you will have tribulation. Trust in the Lord. Blessings hey.

(Hugs) praying for you.
 
I’m so sorry to hear what you’re going through, friend. My heart ached as I read your post, and I know how difficult and frustrating it must be for you. I just said a prayer for you, asking the Lord to touch you with His healing hand and surround you with His comfort, strength, and peace. Remember that no detail of our lives can ever escape God’s notice and He is able to work out everything good for you. I know it’s not easy, but I urge you to stay strong in Him. May your confidence in God’s grace and goodness increase as you look to Him in faith.

Dear Lord God, I pray for DPG, pray for a revelation of your wonder and glory, a deeper insight and understanding of your love, an appreciation of your provision, a reminder that your word is the light to our path and that just because the path's rough, isn't the light's fault, rather we need to reflect how much harder and more dangerous the path would be without that light. Thank you dear God for bringing us so far and being to us more precious than a roll-over lottery ticket, you don't just transform our lives, you extend them indefinitely. We will one day be with you for ever and these little issues that seem so debilitating now will one melt into just an unpleasant memory as we focus instead on loving and worshipping you. Meantime we have you, your son and your Holy Spirit to comfort us and keep us happy. Amen.

Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers they are greatly appreciated!!
 
dpg3 1 Chron 28:20 and my personal favorite Isaiah 41:10-13!! You are sure not alone,at 68 I have 9 stents in my heart I cannot walk far now,but I will endure!! Period!! No matter what! I have no time to feel sorry myself,because the only one that can help me and my mindset is me! Depression wants to control my body,but I have no time for it,it will never help me! I know that,so why would I get depressed? Not being mean!!

I understand how one can feel,but feeling are not part of our new mindset! You have my prayers,but its not up to any of us,it is up to you! Believe and recieve,or doubt and do without. That is what the Spirit of God told me. It was rather harsh,but God does not beat around the bush with me,and you know what,I am glad he did that!! I was motivated to move forward and stay in his will daily!! HOW??? Rather then complaining I stay thankful for what he has done,and what he will do!!!( 1 Thess 5:18) You have my prayers and blessing!!

Thank you for your prayers.
 
I know that sounded a bit harsh dpg3,it was not meant to condemn you whatsoever! This just helped me, get over myself,and get with it!! This may not be your situation at all,I sure am not judging you in any way,I just wish to motivate my brothers and sisters in Christ!! ( 1 Cor 10:23) I want you build UP, never down!! Blessing!!!

dpg3 I will not pray for your illnesses...I will however pray for you....2 Peter 2:24 says that you ARE healed...so I ask you...Whom will you believe? God? Or the enemy? Satan is the author of sickness and death, and God is the one who heals ALL of your diseases...Ps 103. My friend, the choice is YOURS. Choose life! Oh...Now that you've told us what you need prayer for, stop speaking the sickness and start speaking what God says about your health....
