I wish that I was a wonderful writer! I wish that I knew how to express the things that fill my heart with emotions. It has been a wonderful week. I was able to attend a concert with my sister and one of my dear friends (I will post on it later). I spent the day with the most amazing women I've ever known on Wed. I volunteered at school and watched my children play with their friends. Tonight we had a group of friends over for Shabbot and that was wonderful. It has been a wonderful week, really.
And yet, I am feeling like there is a spiritual battle going on around me! I feel the Lord around me, protecting me, keeping me close. I am seeking him more these days in all I do! I want His will for my life. Every decision I have made this week...I have prayed over. I have waited for the Lord to show me what he would have me do! I am listening for Him. I am waiting for Him. I am doing what I feel the Lord is leading me to do. I am not afraid of the evil one that lurks in the shadow. He is the one who deceives. He wants to destroy lives.
I know that He who is in me is GREATER than he who is in the world. I know I have the Lord on my side. I know I am his faithful servant and he will watch over me. I know he walks with me through every day of my life...I know he is protecting me!
"...Be strong and couragous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go" Joshua 1:9

Dai, you are a beautiful woman of God. You are sensitive to His spirit. God has placed you in the position you are in for a reason.
I want you to know that your friendship is sustaining me, your prayers are supporting me and your example encourages me. I don't have the words to express my gratitude for you.
These verses come to mind:
Ecclesiastes 4: 9 - 12
" Two are better than one... For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls and there is not another to lift him up... And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart."
Thank you for being my third cord.
Ooops, I mean "strand!"
Dai, you are a wonderful writer!
i appreciate your heart, friend.
What do you mean you aren't a great writer?
That was a beautiful post.
How blessed we are.
um, if you can't write then I can't read.
You write your thoughts out like that, and I'll keep reading them. And loving you from in here (in your computer!)
*hugs*

How awesome that you are seeking the Lord with such dedication!! He loves it when His children come before Him, consult with Him, confide in Him. It takes a lot of discipline to not let the day to day responsibilities and burdens cloud our view of the Lord (and our ability to seek Him, or to see Him). I really love that you shared this!!
beautiful words my friend :)
Amen Dai! Amen.
