The Devil anticipates moves of God
The last week has been intense to say the least. As God moves in my life and is maturing me into the man that will impact the Kingdom of Heaven the devil seems to be a step ahead. When God gives me revealtion or starts to do something drastic in my life there comes Satan with a myriad of different hardships and problem that attempt to get me down and depressed. Satan is smart; don't underestimate him. After Boston's hardships, we came home with revelation and a ferver for winning the battle in the name of Christ. Since then, almost everyday for me has had its hardship. I hit a deer on the way to church, my dad and I aren't getting along, and I got so sick today I feel like death. My back and neck were killing me. What is going on?????? Sometimes I feel like giving up, but Jesus said, "My grace is sufficient in your weakness."
When you are walking with Christ and hardships comes, ask yourself how a diamond is formed. A lump of coal is crushed by thousands of pounds of pressure for an extended period of time and a diamond is formed. We too are created like that...through hardship and persecution we are formed into diamonds.

I can honestly say this creeped me out for all the wrong reasons.
i like that you bare your faith write out on your sleeves by writing so much about God and the devil and their reaction.
It's good you have your faith, but i dont' feel you need to preach it in school, Don't get me wrong this is a creative writing class and I am a Catholic and have three uncles that are priests and an aunt thats a nun, however I feel you are preaching.
