Why I am not posting? How am I doing?

A month without a post? That is nothing new, though I am trying to get away from that and post more often. Reason I’m not?

Physically? A new back injury/muscle injury… stops me from walking because of a great deal of pain. An operation, slated and cancelled and slated again and done (took longer than expected before the bleeding stopped). Burns on legs… not healing as well as they should. Sores on feet… not improving and still painful. Sitting at the computer writing/surfing/playing… next to nothing at all… leg goes numb and then quickly becomes too painful to continue. Overall, hasn’t been a very good six weeks.

Spiritually? Doing pretty good. In fact this year has been the best one spiritually than any in the past two decades. Hmm… perhaps the enemy, not being able to get me spiritually, has decided to attack me physically? Now if I could get a word of knowledge about it that would be great.

Mentally? Caught between The Rock and a hard place. Thanks to Jesus I am not overwhelmed by the current difficulties. I do have a lot of empty time that I am having trouble filling with good things. The drugs I am on give me the slightest buzz so that time slips away a little easier/faster than normal.

Tomorrow I will do a post about a book I just finished reading. That will be done between a blood test at one hospital and an MRI at another. For today… it’s about me: the good (spiritually), the bad (mentally, though not that bad) and the ugly (physically).

    Hello Joe
    At this point in time your difficulties remind me of a lady I once read about named Christina Tsai. Her book is entitled Queen of the Dark Chamber. She was confined to her house due to illness, yet she was used by God to bless many much as you have and will do. Love George
