Someone once told me that when we wake up, we do have some control over that day. We can look at each decision in a positive way or otherwise. The day usually turns out depending on that outcome.

When ever I go to bed, I always say to myself that I should wake up with a positive attitude & full of joy. I know it is not going to be the same every day, but if you stay positive then you can make it happen.

In reply to Uplifting Families.

Hi Uplifting,

Ah, thanks for sharing so authentically your journey. It brings tears to my eyes to imagine the intensity of the pain you are experiencing. And although I did not have fibromyalgia, I did once have chronic pain all over much of my body. There’s not much to say about it, except that it really sucked.

I feel sadness that the pain is so severe you would wish to leave us, though I can imagine when there is no relief from the pain how that option would definitely seem appealing. I do want to share that as I got deeper and deeper into energy healing and my spiritual path, most of my pain has disappeared. I had chronic knee pain for example that didn’t respond to surgery and stopped responding to pain killers. I was shoveling four Advil (yikes) just to blunt the edge of it when I skied.

Well, lo and behold, after a few years of this energy healing, that knee pain just disappeared. I never thought that was possible. I also had chronic shoulder and back pain, had to sit in weird ergonomic chairs and have weird ergonomic keyboards and still was in pain all the time. Once in a while the right shoulder will flare up a bit, but mostly that pain is gone too.

I know other people too who have found release from their chronic pain of various kinds through the energy healing and spiritual path. I guess I share this only to say, maybe there is hope of finding release from pain even here.

Love,
Erika

Since I have been battling fibromyalgia for about two years now some days I often wonder what my purpose is. It is very frustrating to be in pain all day long. I get brief times when my pain is limited but more often than not, I’m in excruciating pain. I always try to think of Job in the bible. I know he struggled just like I am, yet God had a purpose for him. I am thankful for my blogs. Without them, I know I would be I’m a deeper state of depression. I also rely on my faith in God to get me through it. I do look forward to going home to sit at the feet of Jesus when he is ready to take me. I look forward to that day because I know he will free me from my pain. It is that hope that keeps a fire burning.

I think if you tell yourself you’re going to have a great day, then you will! (Or at least a better one.)

I love turning to warm-hearted books when stressed

It’s sometimes difficult to look for a silver lining when the clouds are really dark. But you know what, have a positive outlook in life helps you wake up with joy in the morning. Every single day.

I think Christianity itself is founded in joy found in the Lord. When I went through a crisis of my own, I found that asking God to remind me of his love for me and listening for his response made a difference. Joy is ours when we seek the source of joy — for me, that is in Christ.

I always set out to be happy and make the best out of a situation. It doesn’t always work, but hey, I try.
