Prayer & Preparations ~ Part II

There is so much going on in my head right now that I can't even sort it out and put it on paper. But, a few minutes ago ~ I dwindled it down to two words ... SPIRITUAL WARFARE! This morning at bible study I felt so 'high' from WOF and from feeling a great peace about preparing for the trip that I think I got caught with my armor down ... LOL ... but no joking, I just got knocked out at the knees. In dealing with some issues that I have been trying to overcome and face over the past week or so, I had started to finally feel secure, confinent, focused and trusting. But Satan knows every little tiny hole to creep his slimy little voice into ... and he did ... and I listened, briefly. But it was long enough to put that lump back into my throat and take me down a peg or two. So, pray for me if you would please and for this incredible journey that is about to take place. A friend once told me "My purpose here must be so huge that Satan is double timing me to keep me down" ... I'm gonna remember that ~ this lump in my throat and anxiety IS NOT of God. I really liked this verse:

Psalm 25:4-5

Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord,

point out the right road for me to follow.

Lead me by your truth and teach me,

for you are the God who saves me.

All day long I put my hope in you.
