praise god.
he has been restoring me little by little, but he is faithful.
i found a church in my new situation, and a few friends there. i have been playing chess on tuesday afternoon at mathers, more than a cafe. although the clientelle there is mostly 20 years or more beyond my age, it is still something i can do regularly and i have made a few friends.
i found another chess gathering online, a meetup thing, at a senior center not to far, on tuesday nights. most of the people there are my age, although there are a lot of older people. nonetheless, it is something to do and they are friendly. my brane has been scrambled by the MS, but god is healing me. playing chess helps a LOT. i used to be pretty good, but i haven't played in years, but i am getting good again. god is so good.
i mentioned before that i have contact with a person from an MS site and we are talking over the phone. she is very nice, and a friend. i have joined a nami (natl assoc for mental illness) thing and attended one meeting. my shrink suggested it as a cheaper alternative to group therapy, not neccessarily because i am psycho, as to get me out of the house and around people. it is a little strange, but there are some nice people and it is something to do.
i have been SO isolated.
god is restoring me, bringing me people to fellowship with, little by little. he is faithful.

i am working, the lord is good. it is keeping me busy and out of trouble and i am feeling useful rather than feeling sorry for myself. it is good that i have something to do and somewhere to be. i have felt pretty aimless since i have been recovering. watching too much tv and praying all the time. the lord is good. he is providing. i am healing and my mind is coming around. thank you lord, thank you.

something bad happened to me and i did not act out, or take it personal. and god came thru. like i knew he can. i am not saying that bad stuff doesn't happen sometimes, it will, but when you trust fully on god he tends to work things out for good for those who love him.

community service (cont)

ok. i have completed 18 hours of my reqired 30 hours of community service.
i have been concerned that serving my hours has meant staying on my feet for 3 hours at a crack, and i am not yet 100% from my recent ms attack.
it has been hard, but i can do it, and it has been helping me to heal quicker.
god works miracles in the oddest ways.
i am more than half done with my 30 hours, and at least 1/4 of the way healed of my
ability to walk.
yay god!

i have added up 12 hours of my mandatory 30 hours community service as of today. my feet are SO sore, but i think they are stronger.
i am going to try to do another 3 hours tomorrow. i haven't done two days in a row yet. the most i've done is twice in a week so far.
god is good.

i got into another small group type bible study, doing 1 peter.
i never really read peter inductively like we are doing.
the overiding message is focus on god during our trials, that is a great message.
i don't think it is referring to me exactly, it was written to the exiles who were under nero. thier trials make mine look minor.
but it helps to focus on god in my pain.
