I'm about to give Duckling more Albuterol. It's not changing her at all.
I've given it to other children too. Never heard anyone have side effects.
Youight want to carefully read this then, as I'm not sure how a 2 year old would even be able to tell you if she feels "anxious"

You mean that is why she keeps crying for absolutely no reason? Okay. I thought it was that she hasn't pooped in a week. (Actually, it probably is considering the timing)
That is the oddest list of side effects I have ever seen. It is like they were high when they wrote it.
Lol well it makes me kinda paranoid to ever give it to the kids with just the possibility of arrhythmia! When they compile those, its a list of possibilities, not an absolute. It might make her cry and make me mad. Lol depends on dosage and physiology and pharmacology of the patient and the body it goes into. I'm hypersensitive, much like JF, so even birth control pills used to affect me horribly. I have to be really careful with certain medications, but DH can take steroids and not even blink while I'm turning into an axe murderer
I think there's a difference between being given more than we can handle, and falling when we get dealt that big challenge/temptation/hardship. I believe He won't give me more than I can handle, but, there are plenty of times, when I simply wimp out and choose not to seek Him, and choose to go my own selfish path. When my hubby was in ICU on life support, and I was facing a very likely outcome of becoming a widow at the age of 32 with a teen and tween child to raise, and 2 weeks shy of completing my associate's degree... That was a challenge, for sure. And I had many discussions with God, essentially telling Him that I was not ready to be a widow. How would I have responded if hubby had died? I feel confident that God would have given me the grace to deal with it. Would I have been mad at God? Perhaps. But, I would have scratched my mad spot, and moved on. I think God honors our heart felt emotions, even allowing us to express anger. Just like a child might get upset or mad at his father, that does not change the love between father and child.
If I recall, Job kinda failed that whole test since he had to be "chewed out" by God for being such a whiny spiteful godly man.... And David? He could have said "no" to adultery if he'd had his mind on God like it SHOULD have been. There was a huge way to escape there. But before we go on, you're attempting to force two English words and their definitions to override the fact that they can, in fact, be interchangeable... For example, when Jesus was being tempted by Satan, he quoted from the OT.. . Here's exactly what he says in Matthew 4:7 7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ Im thinking it was quoted directly from Deuteronomy 6:16 16 Do not put the Lord your God to the test as you did at Massah. Unless I've found the wrong scripture, that to me looks like temptation can be the same as a test, depending on the circumstances and use of the English words... Should I go look at the lexicon and make sure this isn't just a mistranslation?
TMI maybe, but its the truth. We women have to guard ourselves a little extra during that time or it'll be easier to tempt us to sin. Not sober minded whatsoever when I'm all doped up on steroids or hormones.
I like that one
I agree we use pmsing as an excuse and it's become even acceptable as a means to get out of murder literally in some cases. The fact is we still responsible for our own action and if it take time to ask God for his help he helps but we have to remember he gave us a spirt of love of power and of sound mind. We have to use his gifts and promises. In some ways we can help it and others we can't but its like the breathing treatments I have to recognize when things are to blown up and when they aren't. Right now I am shaking and if the kids start fighting or throwing a fit I get mad and have to calm down so can handle them properly otherwise I am in the wrong.Here's where my brain was this morning after thinking about the effects of medications on our ability to resist temptation...
Or hormones, however you want to think of it...
How many men think it's perfectly OK for a woman to use the phrase PMS to excuse horrible behavior?
And how many women are guilty of being an obnoxious contentious female, forcing her poor husband up onto a rooftop..(or in my case, DH has a camper to escape to, not really funny after thinking about it)... All on the EXCUSE that they can't control themselves because of an overload of female hormones?
Is that the inability to resist temptation increasing because of hormones, or is it in fact, just an excuse?
How about menopause? Is that a trial, a test?... Is it a way for Satan to get in that hormonal brain and tempt your wife or mother to curse? Or is it just something that "can't be escaped"?
I know I'm going to get a bit testy, and so does DH, so yes, he has a camper to make his escape to so he's not tempted to yell at me, and he has a camper that I can chase him off to before I'm tempted to yell at him and blame hormones.
It's not fairrrrr!!!
hat's one of my favorite chapters ever
