prayer, please
Feb 18th, 2010 by christina
I’m almost out of the 1st trimester and pretty much over the horrific morning sickness (now it’s just occasional), so I am thankful. But about 2 weeks ago it became very apparent that everything structurally was getting drastically looser, by design of course, but this has reeked havoc on my neck and spine and the significant progress I was making at the chiropractor’s. I wake up with a major headache every day, and it is grace alone that keeps me from ending every night at 6 or 7 moaning in bed. My neck/head/face/jaw/shoulder/back pain has been almost worse these past weeks than before I did any treatment, even my TMJ treatment from 2 years ago. I need prayer. Prayer that my progress will not deteriorate, that my pain will decrease/go away, that I will not be starting at square one again come August, and mostly that my heart will not fear these things, and my faith will continue to increase. My baby is worth anything, but I just can’t do another 3 year stint like this last one. And I really don’t feel the Lord is calling me to. But these last weeks of pain have been so difficult, so poignant……I just don’t want to waver. thanks.
Praying for you, friend. I truly cannot imagine. If I have a headache for more than a few hours, I feel like I can’t go on. I am so sorry you have to walk this very difficult road. I will continue praying.
I hate to miss you while we’re out here… but maybe next time
I am SO sorry about the pain you are going through. I will be thinking of you and lifting you and the baby up in prayer as we take this journey (sort of) together
Love you.
Hey Christina,
You are so sweetly His beloved one! I’m believing with you for this pain to leave and that you will be able to walk out this pregnancy and the months and years afterward in the power of His strength in you! He is a sun and shield. He gives (still more) grace and glory. No good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly. Thats you! God bless!
Hey Christina… I miss seeing your updates on facebook, and I wanted to check in and see how you were doing. Love you, friend!
