Our pretty boy Golden Retriever, Logan took about three seizures last night. One at around 5:00 pm when Sarah was here. Another around 10:00 pm. The third around 12:00 am. He took the third one when I let him outside to go to the bathroom. As he lay there trembling and shaking in the icy wet grass, I stood outside with no shoes on the porch and felt "helpless". When dogs take seizures you have to let them work through it and finish the seizure, and time it. This one lasted about 1-1/2 minutes. Now I know people who have dogs who have seizures that last 40 minutes. As I called his name and told him "Logan, it will be alright", he just laid there and could not move. I so much wanted to go out to him and hug him, but I just waited.
Alot of times in our "own" lives, we feel like we our "helpless". This is when our Heavenly Father says "It will be alright . . . I am here . . . come to me . . ." When we are going through trials in our lives, God IS there for us. I know he IS there for me because I can feel His presence. I know I have people God has placed in my life to lift me up in prayer when I am going through hard times and happy times in my life. But when you are going through those trials in our lives, it is not easy. But when we have God on "our" side and in "our" ball court, we should not worry. But we do worry.
I love my Heavenly Father. He has been my "constant" companion and friend since my childhood, and He will continue to be. He can be your friend, too . . . just ask Him. =)
