What little words,
but such powerful words.As I
prayed about doing this web
page it was to encourage,
uplift and support those who are
caregivers to the terminally ill.
My husband is terminally
ill with a rare auto immune disease.
As I walk with him through
his illness one thing God has taught
me is to let go and let Him take
control.
Anyone who has ever
been a caregiver knows that many
things are out of our control.
And only God can intercede.We
learn to walk step by step
with God at our side.
He helps us to get through
the day the hour the minute.My Bob
is a wonderful christian man,and
his strength,faith and attitude
has made my job easier.
He's a real trooper
who never complains.God has given
him the strength to carry the burden
of his illnes.Because of Gods
grace Bob has endured all that has
been set before him.
He faces death every
minute of every day.His fight has
been hard and long but he has
fought his battle with his head
held high.His illness has not been
in vain,God has touched many lives
because of Bob's illness.
We have seen the
magnitude of Gods love.We have
seen His power and glory at work.
We have seen prayers go up in
abundance and blessings come down
all around us.God sends you friends
to love,encourage,uplift,and pray
you through the hardest times.
He supplies every
need,His grace is sufficient
to get you through anything
this world has to offer.Through
Bob's illness God has really
worked in my life,I have found
faith,love and strength
that can only come from God.
Life is like a
roller coaster where the ride
never ends,when you are faced
with a illness like this.But
If you let go and let God it
is a much smoother ride.
I can't say everyday
has been a piece a cake.Many nights
I've layed and cryed.Many days I've
been upset,and angry when I see my
Bob in such severe pain.
He has been
through a lot and it's not easy
watching someone you love so
much,suffer,but I can say God
has been with us every step of
the way.
Bob's illness has
affected his muscles,he has had
bloodclots, congestive heart
failure,kidney failure,he
dehydrates all the time,and
every breathe he takes is a
real battle.
But he never gives
up,he has let God take
control.I think when we
let go and let God,thats
when He can work the best.
I hope and pray that these
pages will touch a life,and
that the love and glory of
our almighty God will be felt.
My Bob's disease,has been a
blessing in disguise.
Bob and I have
learned to let go and let God!
For any who are down,
discouraged, broken hearted,
my prayer is that you too will
let go and let God.That He may
be able to work and bless
you,as He has blessed us!!!
