Hello Tam

I'm sending up prayers to our Lord, in the name of Jesus. God's will be done.

Tam, you can fight this because The Lord is inside you. Keep crying out to Him. Tell the enemy to leave in the name of Jesus.

Tam, after the End Times, and after the 1000 years of peace, satan is let out of the pit for a season. Yes, God will let him out again, but he will go back to his same old devilish ways, and then The Lord will put him the Lake of Fire forever.

But, let me show you something.

Ezekiel 38:10 Thus saith the Lord God; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought.

That scripture is prophecy about the time, right at the end of the 1000 years of peace that comes after The End Times. THE FUTURE!!! It says, then suddenly an evil thought will come into people's minds. Why? Because satan is let out of the pit at that time. That is what he does -- he and his demon buds. They go around and whisper in the minds of those that they know are determined to follow God. And they will continue until we take up our authority in Christ, and demand they leave in the name of Jesus.


Fight the good fight, Tam. I'm fighting along side of you, and so is The Lord. Hold tight to The Lord.

Jesus loves Tam. You, Tam, belong to The Lord.

God bless and keep you.
Love,
Mack

Hi ya sis. I can't add to what was said. It's all good. You've got a lot of folks who love and support you. As far as the title..just deny it. You're choice but I wouldn't carry it. It says understand why I'm the way I am. But it doesn't say who you are in God and who you will be when He's done working this all out to perfection.

Stay strong. You Can Do This! You Are Doing This!

Ok so here I am again today.
I had to go to the dr on Thursday for a follow-up on my neck surgery. This was the second follow=up as he has not released me yet.
Well I had been hurting a little more than usual and my right side has been all tingley and I have began to drop things again with my right hand.
Well I had been praying and on the way to the dr. I prayed for them to find nothing and to say that it was improving...Yeah Right!
After a three hour dr. visit I left in tears. I was so hoping that God would come through and this all be over with.
Well I now have another MRI scheduled and possibly looking at more surgery. My dr said that he is scared that when they went in and fixed the 2 disc that they did, that the disc below the ones they fixed have probably blown, and were resting on a nerve thus causing the pain. The only way we can tell is with another MRI.
He did all the strength test that he has always performed and said that before surgery we were looking at being paralyzed....After surgery the strength had returned about 60%, He said yesterday we are right back at looking at the possibility of being paralyzed again.
What is this, mind games. Why is God allowing the enemy to have a hay day with me? Will this ever stop?
If I have to have another surgery I am looking at another long recovery period. My work I am sure will not be able to keep my position. I am back very limitied activites with my right arm/hand. Which also places limits on my work.
I know .....everyone says trust God..Well I trusted Him to heal me too.
I am going to hang on to that trust as best as I kind. But to be honest right now...I don't know where any is. Gonna search deep and keep praying and see what happens from there.
Just wanted to get this on paper...hoping maybe the tears of disappointment would stop.

Tam...I hear your anger my sister towards God...I'm going to talk to you my sister as truthfully as I can, and I pray that you take my words with the love they are written...you have NO right to be angry with God. See God is God and He has the plans...everything that happens in life is for His glory no matter what...and the reasons things happen are again for His glory and nothing less. Yes that does at times mean we have to suffer...and go through hard times...and no that doesn't always make things easy...but God needs us to be humble before Him...and to fear Him and be in awe of His presence and who He is...when you walk around blaming God and being upset and angry with Him...then you turn God away..as He can not be near where He is not welcomed with open arms. Being angry at God is what the enemy wants you to be sis...but the only way to TRUE healing and healthly living is to be as close to God as you can get. But you again and you alone must choose...is it God or is it you? I pray you choose God and bring glory to His name.

I luv ya Tam more than you know. You are a very special lady, and I see much potential in who you can be. I know you may not see it...but I do....and God does as well.

[Tam]

Mlg I am sorry it sounds like I am angry at God. I am not angry at Him.
Disappointed but not angry.
Thank you for lov.ing me enough to be totally honest with me tho. I appreciate it.
If I don't deal with the disappointment then it will turn into anger. So I am working on that
Love you sis

Hello Tam

God bless you this day.

Tam, we've talked about this type of surgery before, because my hubby had the same surgery in May of 2009, and I know the frustrations with the ups and downs of symptoms recurring and those seemingly endless followup doctor visits.

I think one of the most challenging things in situations like this is all the "talk" from medical staff or from well-meaning friends and family. The talk can instill fear, if we allow it. The doctor is obliged to give his sound medical opinion. However, it does not mean we have to accept the fear that so often accompanies the advice.

Listen to the advice, but do not receive the fear. Rebuke the fear in the name of Jesus. Place ALL the advice at the feet of Jesus. The Lord will guide you in this, Tam.

I will continue lifting you up in prayers to our Lord, in the blessed name of Jesus. God's blessed will be done. I'm with you in this, Tam, but more importantly, Almighty God, Creator of all things, is with you.

God bless and keep you, Tam.
Love,
Mack

Remember tammy, even Peter and Paul still went thru trials as they continued to praise our Lord Jesus.

Rom 5:1-5 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

Trust
Believe
Ignore the lies
Pull up the strength of Jesus thru Holy Spirit

Well today is day 8!!!!!!!!!! 8 days I have made it cut free for 8 days! I am very proud of me. YAY!!!!! Didn't cut after the news the dr gave me last evening. I can make it. I can do this. I believe I can do it now. I don't just think I can...I know I can.
Ok enough about that ...I was sitting at work today thinking about the movie "Facing the Giants" they started out as a losing team. They were know as losers. Well in the story the coach finds God's truth and begins to teach it to the football team. Slowly the football team begins to teach it to the students. Well the team has a defeated attitude and coach just won't settle for it. (Oh lets not forget the janitor who prayers over the lockers and rooms everyday) Well the coach starts teaching them that they have to draw on the strength from within. That with Christ all things are possible. He (the coach) begins to talk about how David and others in the bible had to face their giants. That if they gave up they were defeated....but as long as they trusted in Him....they would win the battle. They had to face their giants.
Well in life I am running from my giants. I am scared to face them. Where is that getting me? What is that accomplishing? NOTHING!!!!!!
Well I was sitting at work and thinking about all the things I have gone through. I began to wonder how this movie could apply to my life. Then it doaned on me that we all have giants of some sort. If we will stand up and face them giants head on, they will begin to fall. I can choose to run from the giants or I can face them head on. Guess what, I had been choosing to run from these critters and have not faced them. They know that I am scared so therefore they are not backing down. I would lie if I said that I didn't have fear. Yes I do. Everyday of my life is lived in fear and I am tired of that. Why am I running. Maybe because I think that I am not good enough to face them . Maybe I think that I deserve everything I get. Yes I sorta do...but ALL good things come to an end right.!
What the dr. told me had me very upset and scared. All the thoughts go running through my mind that any person would have. But then I have the picture of the coach saying ...."Whether we win or lose....we will still praise Him". and today that has done something in me.
There will be some battles that I win easy and some will be harder than others. But it is what I do in the battle that makes the difference. It is up to me. I can choose to mope around and be blue and give all the negative thoughts ground or I can rise up and say......Whether I feel like it or not (win or lose) I will still praise Him.
I have lost my purpose. I have lost my vision. It is time that I quit feeling defeated and start standing up to the enemy and telling him that YES I AM WORTH IT , YES HE DOES LOVE ME!!!!!!
I am choosing today to face my giants. NO it will not be easy but I am going to do it with the Help of Jesus. No more allowing the enemy to keep me down, no more of this negative and defeated attitude. It is time to rise up and press forward.
Thanks for all the prayer and encouragement you guys give me. Love you guys bunches!
