Dear God,
Whenever I get together with a friend you bring about an interesting conversation. Things I didn't think I'd talk about I talk about, learning to listen more intently and staying in touch emotionally within a ride range of topics. You are amazing and so much more.
Dealing with "the envelope" yesterday was tough. It sent me back a little bit. No, it sent me back quite a bit. I began to believe the lies that were in there, lies that were told because I wasn't there to defend myself or show proof of the truth. I know you hold my future in my hands and more than likely I will not use that source for future needs but still, it hurt.
Thank you for having a friend call when I needed her to. I was able to get out of myself long enough to call her back and talk about it. Satan's ability to influence my trip up was a little too much for me to handle on my own. And even though my friend and I decided I should not watch Rambo before bedtime, she changed her mind when she heard I'd been up until two in the morning. Perhaps going to bed knowing my anger issues are being worked out through violent justice does me some good. I might try it tonight if I'm feeling the same way.
Lord, thank you for the completion of the book of Daniel. The next book is Hosea which is another one I haven't read. I ask your spirit to guide me and show me what pieces of me need to be forgiven over and over again when I have a log sticking out of my eye. My sin affects others. Please put your finger on it so I can become more like Christ and less like my sinful nature.
I love you!
Amy
The Bible says God will never leave us nor forsake us. In my case, I hang onto those words as a lifeline. I hope you do, too.
