I am in a slump. This week and last week were counting toward
the garage sale, I knew that and it was in the plan. But, without having a
daily goal of 1)this is where I need to purge 2) this is the purpose of my
purge today… I am kind of feeling lazy and unmotivated. Today is the last official day that would
count toward the garage sale, so tomorrow starts back up the focus again (I
hope).
Through this fasting process (I know it has only been less
than 2 months) I can really feel Satan attack in certain areas. When I feel
like I am making progress, growing closer to God or learning something about
myself, Satan always knows how to knock me down. He attacks me in areas that I
am weak… in relationships, self-worth, self-image… it may have nothing to do
with the actual fasting focus at the time (though sometimes it does), but Satan
knows when you are growing closer to God, and he does what he can to stop it. Here are the verses I am clinging to today as
I am struggling
Luke 10:19 I
have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing
will harm you.
And my favorite go to verse… Phillipians
4:13 I can do all things through
Christ who gives me strength.
In other news… I had the awesome privilege to
go with Brayden on his field trip to Onagonda Cave today. Two amazing
experiences with that… 1)I have a super awesome kid! He really is just an
awesome kid with a great heart (and a fascinating, never stops going, brain).
He is the smallest kid (by far) in his class and he is just so confident and
sure of himself and it doesn’t seem to affect him at all. I could learn a few
lessons from him.

2) God has created some pretty awesome stuff! I am
continually amazed at how God takes such intricate detail in creating the
wonderful visions in nature. The cave was AMAZING and I highly recommend it!
Best field trip ever!
Hope everyone has a GREAT weekend!
