"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance." James 1:2-3
It's probably coincidental that this passage has popped up every single day of this last week in one way or another. Coincidence, ha. As if.
I didn't know this would be the week I would start writing a book that centers a bulls eye over the tender scar tissue of my heart. Someone else did. And He's not the only One, I don't think. Given the dreams I had last night, it would seem Satan has taken no hesitation in beginning his efforts to thwart my endeavor to cast a tool to further the Kingdom. Simply put, he's smart, he's quick, and he's a real jerk.
I had a mild anticipation of some spiritual heaviness coming with the topic, but I was not braced for an attack. It was a foolish oversight on my part. But now I'm here with corrected thinking, feeling more ready than before to take on this challenge.
I will be praying for you on this journey. I believe God is going to use you so mightily in this area to help educate, support, and heal women and men in this area! Keep pressing! God's got your back!!

Oops. I forgot to mention assembling a team of prayer warriors to cover you. Kind of a major thing to forget. I'll blame it on sleep deprivation. And I'll be the first to volunteer for the job.
