Tear.

My sister has been sick lately. The past few months have been very hard on the family, especially my sister. Her condition has been pretty bad since last year but it took it's serious now. Since mid this year, we have been regularly going to consultations with doctors and specialists.

I think it has taken its toll my sister.

Her condition allows her to be moody. She can be happy one time but then upset and angry another time. It gets hard when we (the family) have so many other things to do but then we have to watch her moods as well.

She is on medication now and is continually undergoing treatment. It is nothing serious (as in deadly) but it is serious when it affects the family.

We (the family) try to watch our words etc. when we are around her but how long will it go for? When will it end? Are the medications working? How much more money will we have to be spend for her medications? Is there a scientific solution?

Well according to the doctors there is. They say that what my sister has is common. Thousands of girls have and is experiencing her condition. Okay, so I get that it is common but I do fear for her.

I often cry with her, pray with her, share with her but when will it stop?

I've often asked God why this is happening. I always look at it from my own perspective. I never really know what she is going through until she cries.

And I ask God, 'why? why my sister? what did she do to have to endure such pain?'

Answer: I don't need a reason to love her. Because I love your sister, I want to process and shape her into the person I have planned her to be. I promise that she will get through this.

I keep sharing with my sister that everything will be okey but I guess it's different when you are in her shoes.

I feel that in these days God is working in her.

So when you face things that are hard, remember that He is in control of your life. No harm will come to those He love.

A friend once said:
Trusting God won't make the mountain smaller but make climbing easier. Don't ask God for a lighter load but ask HIM for a stronger back.
