Just when you think God's ignoring you. . .

I figure God hears enough of my whining that maybe He's started to tune me out. Until I was talking to my sister today about whether God ever just miscalculates how much someone can really handle. I mean, it's possible, right? Simple enough mistake to make. Understandable really. Some of us do appear quite tough (I'm flexing here). But the camel is buried in a big straw stack at this point. My headaches are off the chart bad, and I'm not dealing well. They are changing, which I prefer to see as a positive thing, but since they're getting worse, maybe that's not the most accurate way of seeing it. It's like a sledgehammer now instead of an icepick, and the duration has at least doubled, if not tripled. The frequency is down a bit, but the intensity's up. Can't have everything.

So, how do I know that God still has an ear out for me? The daily motivation I get in my email today said (in part): "Who you truly are, is always much stronger than whatever you might be going through." I suppose it's nicer than just saying "Stop whining and deal with it".

At least you don't have to think that I'm ignoring you because I comment on your blog.

And I appreciate it! It's nice to know that at least one person out of the 6 billion on the planet would take the time to validate me ;)
