Highs and Lows
On a Friday I have French lessons with a lady from the church and on my way home pop into the near-by organic shop for my weekly veg selection. (It forces me to eat veg and isn’t any more expensive than buying small quantities in the local supermarket.) Anyway, I usually have a little chat with the lady about life and things. Today she asked me what I did, which led on to who are the baptists, which led on to the claims of Jesus, which led me to leaving her with a John’s Gospel and a evangelistc booklet about knowing God!! Please pray for her that God touches her heart and shows her truth.
So I was all excited and was unlocking my door and the phone was ringing…oh no! I know from experience now that break-throughs are very often followed by struggles. I had someone on the phone telling me some very disturbing news about what went on in my house group while I was away. Oh dear. Please pray for wisdom and for protection for me as I deal with the situation. I feel quite accutely the attacks at the moment. (Somebody even posted a very evil remark on this blog, which I removed.)
Psalm 32 in the Bible: You are my hiding place, you will protect me from trouble, and surround me with songs of deliverance, you will instruct me and teach me the way I should go. Many are the woes of the wicked, but the Lord’s unfailing love surrounds the person who trust in him.
