Hi bearsforsc,

> It does seem so true at times that "when it rains, it pours." My heart and
prayers go out to you. I sometimes wonder why we have to endure such hardships
in life. I know that in the Bible, we are told that we are to expect trials but,
boy oh boy, are they sometimes so difficult to deal with. I am going thru
several trials of my own. If you are anything like me, you have probably been
suffering from depression, high blood pressure, anxiety and insomnia. What I
have found that has helped me is to help others. (volunteer work, helping
someone that's ill, working with the children at my church, etc.) When I am
helping others, it seems to take the focus off my own problems. I pray and read
my Bible every day and have recently started attending a women's Bible study. It
sure feels better knowing that I am not alone and that others are praying for
me.
