There are some scriptures that always give me faith.....one is "call those things that are not as though they were" It helps to give you hope....and it sure doesn't hurt. I am praying for you....and your bf....when you go get through this, you will be stronger. Your little Layla is going to be ok. Remember, she doesn't know she's "sick." Just keep hope and love her. |
Thank you. I consider myself Christian but the past few years I haven't really been active... haven't really been praying, haven't gone to church at all, except when visiting my boyfriend's parents, who go weekly. Almost a year ago exactly (it happened at the end of April), my mom had a stroke. It happened out of nowhere and I was shocked and terrified. I prayed constantly. After 5 days in the hospital, she was discharged and back to her normal self, except for on medication for the rest of her life. She recovered so quickly that I didn't think much of going back to church.
This time with Layla, we have run to the church. I have submitted prayer requests online, I have asked the reverend to pray for her, I have asked my friends and family to pray for her, and of course I have been praying myself. It's so weird, the main part of the service we went to on Sunday was about how they are trying to get more people to come to church, and for some it will take a big change in their life that makes them turn back to church, or come for the first time. I was holding back tears because it seemed to be about us.
