Although things are going smoothly with our move as we continue the transition (thanks for praying!), we've been made aware of some really weighty issues going on the in the lives of our friends. One after another, it seems that people are expressing problems in their marriage to us or we are just finding out as we (Chris) reconnect with old friends. Not sure what is going on here, but one things seems clear: the devil is at work. He is the biggest liar that ever existed and I'm sure he is very pleased with himself when he convinces people to believe that God has forgotten them, that they are left to themselves to solve all their own problems, that no one else is struggling and everyone else has it all together, that they are not good enough, not spiritual enough, etc. I'm sure he is just loving that he has succeeded in isolating spouses from their partners, kids from their parents, friends from people who hold them accountable and care deeply for them, the church member from the church family, and hardened their heart until they can't determine truth through the thick, thick web of lies.
I'm so angry...angry at the stupid devil. And I fluctuate between that and being so deeply sad. One thing has been made clear to Chris and I though--we are all vulnerable, we are all capable of the unthinkable. Not just bad, but good too. So we are on our guard. Watch out Satan!
We are having date night tonight. So there!
