From Hell to HOPEISM ~: For when satan takes...

On being forged into a warrior mom

If I could summarize our journey from Hell to HOPEISM, it would be in my faith, which I call HOPEISM. It has been my weapon of choice to get me through each battle I have had to fight in my mission to win our war called life with autism and seizures. Vaccine injury to be more specific. It would also be in committing to heart, soul, & mind the words and motto's from Forged, NDCQ, the Lone Survivor, and Levi Lusko in his book, "Through the Eyes of a Lion." I will be forever grateful to the inspiration, encouragement, and mental fortitude found through all of them collectively. Because of that, I am not allowing this tragedy of vaccine injury that has come into our lives to be an obstacle to being used by God. I am instead turning it into an opportunity to be used like never before!

This blog is dedicated to Brandon. His life has been forged by difficulty, obstacles, & all too often because of seizures - pain, blood, broken teeth, & broken bones. Yet through all that he has shown such fortitude. The bravery, strength, & resilience of a true warrior. He taught me that having strength through adversity means that even if you lose every battle, like the Lone Survivor, you never quit fighting until you win the war. That in the words of "NDCQ," you keep "dreaming," keep "daring," & keep "doing." As Team Guppy has yet to be able to escape vaccine injury, we have no choice but to as Levi Lusko writes, "Run toward the Roar." God has indeed given us such incredible power in enduring such impossible pain.

Some days the HOPEISM in that simply takes my breath away.

For when satan takes...

satan,

Take your lies
Take your deception
Take your temptations
I don't need them.

Take your doubts
Take your betrayal
Take your bondage
I will escape them.

Take your deals
Take your destruction
Take your captivity
I'll keep my freedom.

Take your anger
Take your fury
Take your impatience
Faith doesn't hurry.

Take your pride
Take your blame
I'll confess to Christ
I'll bear no shame.

Take your pity
Take your pain
What you mock as loss
I'll claim as gain.

Take my tears
Take what you've broken
Your door's now closed
God's window always open.
