Good morning SSC men!
I don't know if many of you SSC men feel the way that I do, but as I am "growing" older and raising my own family, the trials and tribulations that I never experienced when I was younger, and thought I would never experience; have now bombarded my life! It is ONLY through prayer and TOTAL dependence on God and faithfully taking action steps that has carried my wife and I through the most challenging seasons of our lives which includes (from the death of my earthly father, birth of my 2nd son, stolen new car, 3 miscarriages, financial issues, in-law marriage issues, extended family issues, identity theft, business stresses to a new baby due in October). I have lost 16-18 lbs. and I have to admit the fasting is unintentional (stress tends to make me not want to eat as much and much cleaner...go figure??? God cleanses my heart both spiritually and physically  ). After praying and kneeling at the cross and giving God all of my attention, then action steps must be faithfully taken. As a chiropractor (a natural health care provider) I also use exercise (I have 1GB of christian MP3 music that I listen to as I run and workout) for stress relief and to keep the body in balance from the stresses of the "world". This is how I am getting through this season of my life and I will always use this method until the day He calls me home. This is the type of season that will either break a marriage or bring it together stronger. My wife and I want to use it to build each other up, strengthen our marriage and give a Godly example to our children. I told her that I want to look back at this time and say "We did it ONLY through the grace & mercy & blessings of God!' He is writing our testimony (which will be an unbelievable one that ONLY God could plan) of His glory as I type. "Thank you God for loving us so much that you grabbed our attention to bring us closer to You!"
