Ah, that's good news! When you go to the emotion station, make sure to only get the high grade stuff, this time. :P
Haha... Maybe that was tasteless. :) There is certainly a benefit in reaching the end of yourself, though, assuming you look upward, to Him, and not inward, to yourself--the problem in the first place. :P
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 AMP "Three times I called upon the Lord and besought [Him] about this and begged that it might depart from me; but He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me! So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak [in human strength], then am I [truly] strong (able, powerful in divine strength)."
Of course, quoting it is easy. :D Obeying it... :) The Lord bless you, Aletheia, with such an unflinching will to obey Him. :)

Psalms 61:2
"From the end of the earth will I cry to You, when my heart is overwhelmed and fainting; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
Heh. I read that this morning and thought I'd pass it on. :)
