[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]   I am going to leave my actual religion out of it and I am not religious in terms of going to a place of worship, but I believe in God and religious values like being kind to others, staying humble, helping those less fortunate, showing gratitude, being loyal etc. I have faced so many big and sometimes prolonged adversities in the past few years where I was overwhelmed, but incredibly fortunate. I feel like in many ways it has broken me and made me stronger at the same time and I am in awe of how fortunate we have been (things like reversing a grim medical prognosis,teenager surviving a serious car accident that wasn't her fault unharmed) but with some of the things I have faced where I feel fortunate others who don't understand how bad it could have been might think the outcomes wasn't good. I have friends who are stunned that so many major challenges have happened these past few years and I feel both unfortunate and incredibly fortunate at the same time. I feel like there are so many lessons I have learned and God is so good, but also please give me a break from adversity for a while because my nerves can't take it. I do ask "why me" yet I know to ask "why not me" because everyone will have challenges. I need to be grateful to God and find all the lessons, but wow do I need a break!

Are there verses or quotes or sermons that you have found useful? Anyone relate to this?[/quote]
I am sitting in an ICU with the strongest, kindest man I know, DH and your post makes me cry. I asked God that question this very morning. I wish you peace and he answers your question and prayers OP. [/quote]
