Well...it seems the Lord is really trying to teach me a thing or two....or three...or four! Why is it SO incredibly hard to trust the Lord and believe His promises?? He's proven Himself time and time again....so why is it so hard? I've been faced with many tests this past week...some I have shared and some I haven't. Just so you all know, I'm failing ~ or so it seems.
I have the truths God has promised me. I just need the peace to rest in them.
"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee." Isaiah 26:3 (KJV)
"You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You."
Isaiah 26:3 (AMP)
"You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!" Isaiah 26:3 (NLT)
Lord, forgive me for failing yet again....for allowing satan to have my mind where the battles started and have been. Lord, please help me to lean on You...to hope confidently in You...and to keep my thoughts fixed and focused on You~not the struggles I'm facing. I lift You up and praise Your Holy Name for You are worthy and worthy to be praised.

Ugh. I'm so sorry you're going through a battle right now. Well, not really, cuz God has something really cool to show you or build in you. I can't wait to hear what it is someday. But I would like to remind you that you have a friend who loves you no matter what, and is praying for you. It seems that whenever a believer is really working on her relationship with Christ, satan starts throwing cheap shots. He doesn't want you doing any more good, or getting any closer to Christ, or being a good example to your children, etc. etc. God is allowing this to happen for whatever reason. Let Him win! I love you. Sandra Dee
