I had another rough day today, my poor little body... it is hard to be so lifeless and useless and deal with such a multiude of unpleasant symptoms and still keep a positive attitude. After I read the following scripture tonight I made it my homework. I looked up the definition (in parenthesis) of each 'thing' to meditate on, and then I defined in red how it applies to me. Now the trick is how to take it from here and apply it when I am burning, itching, cramping and feeling sorry for myself.
Meditate on These Things
- Phil. 4:8
“Finally brethren, whatever things are true (factual, accurate)
God has a plan, He loves me, I will be with Him eternally no matter what happens to my physical body now.
Whatever things are noble (dignified, gracious, righteous)
He is.
Whatever things are just (fair)
He rewards those who diligently seek Him.
Whatever things are pure (wholesome)
LOVE
Whatever things are lovely (pleasant)
Hugs and massages from Lyndee
Whatever things are of good report
This too shall pass.
If there is any virtue (desirable quality)
Tenderness, understanding, compassion
And if there is anything praiseworthy (commendable)
His love endures forever
Meditate on these things.”

I'll try!
-Amen!
