Praying, Joel.

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Thank you. :)

I slept badly last night (as always; I never sleep well. Nightmares tend to do that to you)...And dizziness in my dreams didn't help. :/

Ugh. It's just been nothing but worse this whole year.
God bless,

I'm so sorry to hear that, Joel. Keep trusting God and relying on him for strength. The night must end eventually, and when it does, the greater shall the dawn be because of how deep the darkness was.

Last night I had unbelievably awful nightmares. >_< Ugh. Hopefully tonight will be a turnaround. I've been sleeping so bad lately. And I never sleep well, so that's saying something.

I know what a wreck I am when I don't get enough sleep, and I'm not even sick. I can't imagine how much worse it is for you.

I wish I had some good news to report, but unfortunately it is nothing but bad.

The last two nights of "sleep" (like that was sleep <_<) have been complete and utter trash. I hoped to get rest last night, but, instead, I was greeted with even worse nightmares than usual (incredibly so), and garbage sleep.

I have needed relief and deliverance for so long, and I have not gotten any. Three and a half years of ever-growing torture. Will this never end?
God bless,
Joel ><>.

Thanks, mate.

I had been sleeping slightly better, too. But the last four nights, especially the last two, have been horrid. :pale:

I was in tears this morning. Which I cry pretty easily. :P But it was bad. Really bad. And it still is.

Oh, God, please give me good sleep from now on out...
God bless,
Joel ><>.

Thank you, Twin. :)

I did sleep better last night. :D May God bless me with an even better one tonight.

I've started to listen to the Bible being read while on the computer. I believe it will help. I was able to listen to 60+ Psalms last night doing that. Sure, I'm not retaining all of it by any means, but it's still going into my subconscious. :)
God bless,

Praying for you, Joel. I hate losing sleep, so I can just imagine how difficult it must be for you. :/

I'm glad you slept better. :D Yes, listening to the Bible is a great way to get it into your head even if you aren't paying attention the whole time. I'll pray you continue to get better sleep.

I've been doing a lot worse since last night (some of it is real, some of it is fear), but hopefully it'll just be a brief thing that'll go away soon. Really big downturns usually are.
God bless,

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Works in progress:

The Diegosian Mark, 115,600 words (Preparing for Publication)
The Diegosian Rider, 121,400 words (Finished)
The Diegosian Warrior, 15,000 (In Progress)

Whoa, been too long since I've been in here. o.O

Nothing good to report, unfortunately. :/

Thanks for the continued prayers, everyone.
God bless,

I'm so sorry to hear that, Joel. I'm still praying for you.

Still keeping you in our throughts and prayers, Joel.

Thank you, my friends.

As always, nothing positive to report.

One specific thing to pray is that I might be well, or significantly better and on the way to complete healing, by Thanksgiving. It would be so nice to enjoy it and Christmas - not to mention my life.

Thanks again.
God bless,
Joel ><>.

Thank you. :)

I wish this was a positive update, but it's not. :/ I've been feeling a lot dizzier since last night. Seems to be sinus. It's still early in the day, so hopefully I'll be doing a lot better soon...
God bless,
Joel ><>.

I'm praying that you'll feel better for Thanksgiving. Being sick on such a fun day is no fun. :P

Thank you, all.

Unfortunately, today has been anything but a happy Thanksgiving. :P No improvement. Sinus isn't bothering me quite as much (though I have been dizzier since last nightish), but that's not an improvement. :P

*Sigh* :/
God bless,
Joel ><>.
