Life certainly has a way of teaching us by lending a bit of perspective. Things that once seemed horrible and not all that horrible in light of something even worse.
But...we human beings are much stronger than we think. At least we can be with Heavenly Father's help.
(and with the help of a WONDERFUL husband as well)
This weeks has been REALLY trying.
I have suffered from some pretty serious anxiety and worry but...I just kept going (thanks to a blessing I received from previously mentioned wonderful husband). I wondered at times if I would crumble but tried to rely on faith to get me through.
What an experience.
For now...things are better.
Hopefully this particular trial is over...if not, I KNOW I can deal with it. One step at a time.
Note to Jenn: Thanks for the encouraging words. Heavenly Father really does have a way of showing us just how strong we are. Your words REALLY helped.

oh, melanie! my heart goes out to you. i have had a very, very similar week with much anxiety & worry about parker. with very similar personal revelation as to who is at the helm of it all. i am so glad that you are feeling better. call me if you ever want to talk....
Seriously, sometimes its like that song "Jesus Take the Wheel!" Try to keep going and remember how great a mother you are to FOUR children. Never forget that :)
When I first had Makayla my anxiety and fear was overwhelming, but with the Lord we can get through anything. Now that Evan is having problems too,I just know that relying on the Lord and a great husband is all you can do. Hang in there the Lord makes everything ok in the end, even if you think it will never be again. Hugs and Prayers. Love Audra
You are one strong lady! Thank you for your sweet words....they were just what I needed to hear today.
Wishing you lots of strength and patience. xoxo
Love you, Mel!
I hope things will be better soon! But you are totally right. We could never make it with out Heavenly Father! You are strong and you WILL be just fine!
Love you
Thinking of you friend! Here is to better days.
Melanie I think you are FREAKIN awesome!!!I can understand those times where its stressful and hard to get through! So thankful for the church and the knowledge we have to help us get through those times. Hope all the kiddos are doing well!!
I think that anxiety runs in the family. I have times where I have things enter my mind and I wonder where it comes from and I hate it. But whatever it is, I tell the Lord that I will never give in and to please take it away. Then I tell Him if the answer is no, that He will give me the strength to deal with it. I am sorry for your struggles. I think that you are great Mel. :) We can do anything with the Lord's help. Loves!
