ME-as I go through this zany, marvelous, difficult experience called: "LIFE"!

Today I feel at peace with God, myself ad the world. In my youth, I studied relentlessly, day and night, having the dream of being a doctor (ppediatrics). I'm middle aged and not a doctor. I'm at peace with this. As a young woman, I thought I would marry and have lots of children. (I love children so, so much). I've never beed married or have never had any children. I'm finally at peace with this. I'm begining to understand that God's purpose  is not always mine. The places I have been and the place I am now is His purpose for me. I know God doesn't particularly send you where you want to be in life. He sends you where He needs you. I'm nothing great or anything like that. I need help a lot. People, though, around me need me to show them The Love and Peace that only Jesus can bring. From wherever I am, whatever state I am, my purpose and driveis to serve My Lord! From wherever you are, whatever physical and/or emotioal state you are in, there's...

Evelyn Pinto 21 hours ago  ·  Edited As I recover from pneumonia, I have never been so grateful for my family, my friends, the medical personel who have (and continue to do so as an outpatient) mantained my health and wellnes, and mostly for My God for the gift of Life! The m ost important person in my life is my mother. Many times when I am sick, (especially as sick as I was), I feel I need that closeness only my mother can give me. It's like I am 5 years old and I just want my mother to hold me, take away that pain and make me feel better. Talking to my mother, though the pain and the illness(es ) are still there, but, that comfort that only my mother can bring, emerges. It warms me so much. I feel again like I am 5 years old again, protected by mom, even if it's just her voice. No matter how bad I feel, it seems a little better with my mother. Her love continues to dwell in me and soothe me . Thank you God for All the people you've sent and I have cros...

 I've Been Sprung! I was discharged from the hospital yesterday and I am now home in my apt. It feels much better to be home around familiar stuff and with my friends! Some family will be over tommorrow. (I'm looking forward to that a lot)! Things will soon be back to normal. (Normal for me that is)! I would like to thank the hospital staff for working tiredlessly t o get me to the point where I could return home and to my apt! The care I received in the hospital I was in was better than excellent I would also like to thank my family! The many, many times that I have been sick, they have ALWAYS L loved me and have NEVER given up on me! I would also like to thank ALL My friends, including  for their prayers and support! I see God in my life, through the people I am close to, who have supported me and have prayed for me. I see the love of God in people, even people I don't know well, (some not at all) who have supported me with their love, prayers and kind words! Thank y...

I am still in the hospital fighting, among other serious medical conditions, pneumonia. This pneumonia is taking a lot out of me. I am in bed and sleeping most of the time. I am also in pain and I guess pain will also wear a person out. I am getting the very best care at the hospital I am in. My medical team is working tiredlessly to help me and to also find the  right antibiotics that wiill kill this infection in my lungs. The nurses and primary care assistants, well, I can't say enough good about them. I WANT TO GO HOME THOUGH! I am praying that will I will be well enough to go back home. I know God always come through! I am really, really tired of being sick so much, exhaustingly so! I'm praying for home to happen and my heath to be stable. Can you all offer prayers of comfort and wellness for me? I would really appreciate this and I know God hears all prayers. Thank you. Love, Evelyn

Sometimes life throws you a lot of trials and diffcult times. I'm in one of those troublesome times now. This morning I was admitted to the hospital for pneumonia and other troublesome medical conditions. I'm taking a series of antibiotics both to clear the infection and also, not spread the infection through my body. My faith is (and has) carried me a long way. J esus not only walks with me but, before me. Was Jesus really at the hospital before I arrived? Is His Hand in my treatment now? Is Jesus taking a huge part in the care I'm receiving from so many amazing people who work at this hospital? Though I am in the hospital and going through much pain, my heart is grateful and my faith remains strong. Praise The Lord! Love and prayers, Evelyn Like

It snowed today. The view outside my apartment window was so beautiful and wondrous. Snowflakes continued to drop heavily down from the sky as I looked from my apartmet windows. The view outside looked so inviting that I decided to bare the elements and go outside to play in the snow. Bundled up in sweaters a scarf, gloves, a heavy winter jacket, etc.. and carrying an oxygen tank on my wheelcha ir, I, already in the chair, began my journey outside. I was definitely ready for my adventure in the snow. Snow was all over me as I was blanketed in this gorgeous white stuff. Snowflakes tickled as they landed on my nose. I even managed to eat more than a half a dozen snowflakes! This amazing snow was not only all around me but, all over me, as if I was clothed in a white miracle! I Played In The Snow Today! Today The Lord Blessed Me By Being Part Of A Miracle! Praise The Lord!        Love, Evelyn

Evelyn Pinto  It's a time in my life where I feel powerless to what's going on in my life and what's happening all around me. I live with the powerless feeling of being sick a lot. Illness(es) happen in me though I try to take the best care I can of myself. I take proper precautions. I see doctors and taking and as best I can, their professional advice. This advice is taking the many medications, etc... This only stabilizes my medical conditions and so metimes that isn't even enough. I still get sick! You wanna know something? Sickness doesn't get the best of me or control me! I'm still ME! You (or I) could say I'm a Super Hero! I'm a person who loves people, and loves to laugh! I loved seeing the rain last night and hearing that mighty thunder. I love sunrises, sunsets, eating a dozen snowflakes, rainbows and children. I love my family and friends! Most Of All, I Blessed With The Greatest Gift Anyone Could Ever Receive. It's The Gift Of Sa...
