With faith and trust in the Lord, we shall be given our every need...yes even the words to say. Paul tells us that even if we were dragged away to prison, the Lord through the Holy Spirit will guide our words even at such a time as that. Zechariah's Song 67His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: 68"Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come and has redeemed his people. 69He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David 70(as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), 71salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us— 72to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant, 73the oath he swore to our father Abraham: 74to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear ... Romans 5:5 And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

God can heal you but He may have other plans for you as well. There is a nice book that helps explain such things a little better. This lady has been through a lot in her life so she knows what she is talking about... Joni Eareckson Tada Her website will list some of the books she has written. 31 Days Toward Overcoming Adversity is one of her books. Joni and Friends As for finding people that understand about being bipolar. We have some wonderful people that show up here and give great support for each other. Here is a link of support that they have started as well. http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...r-coaster.html (BP Town----Open to anyone who rides the roller coaster) Your not alone. The Lord is with you and there are people here who understand and care.

Best is right.. I struggled with this alot too.. I didnt understand either. I thought that God should just heal me as well from my bipolar. I am a Christian, and I thought I had a demon in me. I really did. I still struggle sometimes with this belief. But it's not true. Best is right, God does things his way, just as it says in the bible. Everything is done for the good of the kingdom of Heaven. We may not understand why we are bipolar, and we may not understand alot of things that happen in life, but God understands, we may never understand until we meet him. We can only trust that he knows what is best, and that there is a reason, his reason, and his reasons are always best, because he loves us more that we could ever imagine. He does not want us to suffer, just as he did not want his son to suffer, Jesus.. He loves you very much. The best thing to do, is to keep talking about it. Find as much support as you can. Do you have a church? I hope you do,, because if you do, you can look for support in your church. Remember that churches are not for perfect people, but for hurting people. I just try to live one day at a time. It's hard I know. But we know that we have God on our side.. We can also have Christian friends on our side. I have a Recovery group, and there are other bipolar people in my group. It's called Celebrate Recovery. It's a Christian based 12 step group. Maybe you could find a group like that? Open up as much as you can, when you find people you trust. Blessings, Becky

| ButterflyWhy don't you go talk to your pastor? He would understand if he is in recovery. We don't ever go our of recovery, ir we were an addict, we may not be in active using for years and years, but I do believe that your pastor will understand, and he would be a very good person to make an appt. with to go share with too. They do understand our pain, that's why they are pastors. Pastors are some of the most wonderful people on earth. Also, about being Bipolar, isn't there somewhere that you can go to help you get some medication? Isn't there a clinic? I don't know how much $ your husband makes, and I am not asking, but I am sure there are clinics that help if if he doesn't make enough to cover the high cost of the meds. There are also the drug companies themselves that give free meds, once you see a doctor, but that's also if you are under certain income guidlines, and the cost of living in New York being so high, I would imagine that would help, I am sure there are many people that struggle with being able to pay for meds. I think it's worth checking into. Also, I pray with my pastor about my bipolar. Now I say that, and we do that, because it's possible that God could heal me of this, but he may not either. That's up to God. I am not judging you, by any means, please don't ever, ever think that. I am only just trying to help... I feel close to you, even though you live far from me. Have in there, smile, and have a blessed day. ![]() Becky
