Moment of Truth!

So I really have been at a loss of words for a while. Posting little here and there. Mainly because of my thyroid, but I have also had a lot on my plate. More so then usual.




Please keep my father in your prayers. For years now he was diagnosed with Diabetes. Recently in the last 2 years he was told his kidneys were failing. He was then placed on a country wide transplant list for a kidney and pancreas. Not very good year as we waited. He was in the 20 percentile as far as qualifications for transplant. That was considered good but grim. In the last month his kidneys went from being 10% of life to now 3% of life. Monday he has to go in and have an insert for the dialisis machine inserted to his arm. Thus means he will be losing his job soon, he just filed for s-s, also means no insurance so the dialisis will be his life saver until his body gives out. My father watched his uncle go through the same thing he died 3 years back a very painful death. My father is not looking forward to this and does not want to be on it, nor does he want to die a painful death.



I know that whatever happens, My Heavenly Father will be glorified all the way to the end. He has shown up many times during this process, I have heard His voice proclaim what my father will go through is to bring Glory to our Heavenly fathers name. My family, myself, my father and other members of the family have seen Gods move in different ways. In the beginning as we journyed down this road - Truthfully- I thought I was gonna have a nervous breakdown. You see my brother [my only sibling] was killed in a car accident 3 months shy of his 21 birthday. Its taken almost - to -nearly a full 9 years to heal its has been 12 years since his passing, Praise God I am able to handle it better then before. Now with my father going through this, I was unsure I could handle an other death to someone so close to me. But time and Gods help he has prepared me alot.



Recently going to a dear friends sons funeral [he was killed similar to how my brother was] I believe it has given me a chance to relive my brothers funeral to help me become stronger. [That sounds weird in a sense but there was healing there, I seen more strength in me then I thought I could handle.]



I know that God allows things to happen to build His children- sometimes we just dont see it or understand it. In many times of despair God has always been there with open arms for comfort, So what ever happens on this journey, I am resting in my fathers arms with my earthly father there beside me. I am praying for Gods peace with in my fathers life until the day he breathes his last when ever it will be. Please join me in covering our family and my father. He knows of the Lord but still lives a life of his own. Praying the doors open for him and he walks through them before he leaves this place we call temporary home.



I will continu to post as I can and try not to stay unfocused. I am sure things will pull together with Gods help!



God Bless you all! Thank you for prayers.
