Standing Fast

"Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage" (Galatians 5: 1 NKJV).

It's been two months since I started a new line of work--tire retreading. I repair tires, fixing the slashes and holes and tears and blisters and gouges and mumps and bumps and lumps. You understand the concept, I think. It's reapair work. And I am glad to say that I have attained one level of certification recently; this lets me go on to attain a higher certification, namely, the technician's certification. I am set to leave for Iowa in December (5-9) of this year. Much prayer is needed regarding this trip, one that ought to present the Lord first and foremost, and one which will propell me onto to praise Him once again for His care and direction in my life.

I've been aware of how weak I am, spiritually inhibited still by the flesh and it's conquests of the heart. Prayer must not cease, my precious readers. Lord, grant that I may not give into the flesh and it's faulty nature. For your many other children of light, my Savior, provide the evidence of the Spirit's strength in their mind and fuel them onward.

"...For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God" (1 Corinthians 2:10).
