Lots of little entangling problems persist – but the Lord helps me through them.
Seem like Satan sends one of his more persistent and confusing Gremlins after midnight. I guess that’s when they change shifts or maybe time doesn’t exist in the ‘other’ world – the one we only get glimpses of in Scripture… but we get the real mess when they start to get angry and throw things. (J) Like foul up the code or understanding you thought you had all worked out – only to find the errors were RIGHT THERE before you very fingers and you just could not get all the elements to combine.
But the one thing that cures all that – although I am to impatient to wait sometimes and have to go the long way around my elbow to get to my thumb – is stopping to pray and then sometimes taking a small walk and keep that umbrella of prayer right over your heart and head – and HE will answer (although you will still find letters juxtaposed in the most mind boggling and confusing ways.
An assist in curing problems like this came recently when I was praying for a friend who was having pain resulting from inoperable cancer. There’s just nothing that can be done about that except to patiently persist and pray all the more vigorously. You then get a glimpse of what ‘sweating great drops of blood’ really means. (And I do mean in my case it’s only a glimpse – because the Lord knows my frame [and remembers that I am dust] and so instructs me *exactly* with the amount of capability I have to go through and come out stronger – although I have to say the demons frustrate one right up to the breaking point – and that’s *exactly* where the Lord says “That’s enough – Leave him alone – he’s in my care now.” And so they give up – thankfully the Lord does NOT give up.
I think each one’s case or path is different – and suited *exactly* to what is needed. How thankful I am we serve a compassionate Lord who loves us to the ‘nth’ degree (whatever that is) it is sufficient. But these things are only learned at the Lord’s training school…but with great and continuous loving kindness. PTL.
Good night every body. God bless you – every one.
Cordially, IN HIM
