It's amazing how Satan works, this is the first week of praying for our husbands for the 30 day challange and let me tell you, I have been knocked down this week.  My husband has been more cranky and down then EVER and I know it is because of these prayers but the enemy will NOT win.  I serve the One Almighty God and I will continue to pray for my husband. Amy warned us this would happen but I just couldn't imagine until seeing it with my own eyes!

Day 6 is one my dh is really struggling with right now.  The battle of the mind.  This is what Stormie wrote in her book

When he would get down, the words in his mind told him he was going to fail, be worth nothing, that he was incapable of doing what he needed to do.  -Stormie OMartian (p.81)

He doesn't feel he can lose weight, he won't pass his test for work, won't be able to fix our pool, doesn't feel like a good provider because money is tight and our cars need so much work and on and on.....I am going into deep prayer for this subject.  I know my husband serves the same mighty God I do and he can conquer these things so I will keep praying-

I have had many challanges too this week-I started a parenting seminar at my church for the next 8 weeks and devoted myself to praying for Eric and I have heard the enemy tell me I'm not worthy, I have twisted my ankle (the one I broke last spring), I have grieved missing my MIL  who went home to be with Jesus over a year ago, my kids have been more difficult to parent this week, one thing after another this week.  But I will carry on, because I know serving God is not always easy, but I LOVE him and will continue to do his work and have his will in my life even amidst struggle. 

I love what Stormie writes here because I know how true it is!
