2 corinthians 12: 7-10
7. And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. 8. Concerning this thing I have pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9. And he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness," Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in destresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
This is something I have been reading in the Bible, & now I understand better of my own sufferings & I am made perfect in my weaknesses, For my weaknesses have made me strong.
Just something I wanted to share with you!! Take care everyone!! Love always, MM XOXO

Well said. Sometimes what we think is our burden becomes our gift.

SPG,
Welcome back!! Ill update your link right away sweetie. Take care & I hope you know, I miss you. XOXO
BBC,
LOL!! Your cute!!
I m not that into sharing my beliefs, or forcing them on anyone. I think a lot of religious people tend to force their beliefs on others, that will only push them farther away from the lord, rather then help them any.
But right now, I m just really trying to make heads or tails of why I am, how I am right now. I m really trying to be strong & not focus on all the bad right now. I only posted this because its something I felt helped me believe what I was going thro was something to make me stronger. But no worries, I m not pushing any of my beliefs on you or anyone else. I love everyone even if they dont share in what I believe in. I think you are an awesome man with a great heart, so whether or not you have a bible doesnt matter to me at all. I love you all the same!! So please dont take what Ive posted to heart, its only something that I wanted to share on how I was feeling. Take care sweetheart!! XOXO
Alan,

The Bible can be such a comfort sometimes...glad that helped you. xo
You want comfort? Don't look for it in a book. Take another persons hand.

Love always, MM XOXO
