Ok guys,, in front of thousands of people I’m going to admit this,, it’s tough, and I know its probably not very manly I’m scared,, totally mortified and anxiety is nonstop,, I cannot shut down. I had to much dumped on me all at once and having difficulty processing it. I was recently diagnosed with severe cervical stenosis,, which more than likely is going to require fusion surgery,, during one of the tests I had,, x ray,, showed I had a calcification in my carotid artery and that I have carotid artery disease,, it didn’t say how bad. I have an ultrasound scheduled for today in about 3 hours. I don’t know how bad it is. At first I was scared about how I was going to pay for this,, I have no job at the moment, no assets so o know that they will write all that off,, and I know,, that today,, with all the medical advancements,, my stenosis is treatable and that carotid artery disease isn’t a bonafide death sentence and that I could very well live for a long time if I start taking care of myself… so why can’t I shake this? I’m downright terrified,, and I can’t feel god right now,, I’m asking for him to comfort me,,, and I’m trying to give it all to him,,, I need my trapperman family to please pray for me,, ask god to wrap his arms around me,,,,
Stand by your principles, Stand by your guns, and victory complete and permanent is sure at last. Abraham Lincoln

Prayers sent. You don’t even know all your results yet, take a beep breath. Lots of people are in your same boat. You’ll get through it, one step at a time

Prayer for peace and healing. It is normal to be afraid of things you do not understand.

Prayers out.
“O death where is thy sting?”, for a believer, what better way to be healed than for God to call you home. There’s comfort either way. Stay here, God’s not done with you yet. Go to heaven, gain for you!

Praying for you. God give him peace like a river over this. Please take the anxiety away and replace it with total calm and rest. As you clothed the lilies of the field and they are just flowers you said you will take care of yours so much more because you love us. please remember him and show your face to him and give him comfort. In the most precious saving name of all , Jesus
A psalm of David. 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley,[a] I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
I have had my share of tough times- I have the same back issue. I read and re-read this Psalm often. I imagine myself lieing down beside still waters and him guiding me along the paths he wants me to take. I have no control where I go because he shows me where to go. God has a plan for me and he has a plan for you just as much as the rest of us. His rod and staff comfort me. I think about that last line a lot and reflect or meditate on just what that means to me. To dwell in the house of the Lord forever s a comforting thought for sure. God has a plan. Don't forget. Maybe you already have an idea what his plan is for you? You have many friends on here that he gave you who re glad to pray for and with you any time.
Just passin through
