The start of something new...

By
Today I start a new life (Lord willing) with less pain and suffering in one area of my life. :)  I leave today for surgery and I am ready for the Lord to work in my body through this.  I pray the surgery is sufficient and that no further treatment will be needed.  I pray for a speedy recovery and better days to come.  He has sustained me thus far and I know He is faithful to sustain me always.  I am so thankful to serve the God of comfort and mercy.  No matter the outcome, I know He has not forsaken me.  Even though there is still unsureness of what's in my cup, I have faith and trust in He who holds that cup...to Him be the glory.

    Hi Stephanie,
    I woke early this morning and as I laid there on my bed the word agreement came to my mind. As I laid there and thought more about it and prayed I can see where we make agreements with what is not the Truth Jesus Christ but with lies satan. I got up and came and turned on my computer to write down some thoughts I was having. First I googled agreements with satan and the first blog listed was yours. What came up and read was what you had written I think in April of this year. "Do you make agreements with satan?" I know God led me to your blog. Before I read what you wrote I read over your home page and who you are. I felt an instant connection that this is someone who I can identify with, who understands. Today is October 1st and I read what you wrote yesterday about you are having surgery. Your faith is strong and you have so much to share with others. Thank you for sharing.

Do you make agreements with satan?

Many of us make agreements with satan and we don't even realize it. It may start out small like a small thought popping in your head. Satan fuels that thought with mores lies until you have made up your mind that you agree with satan. For example...I can't watch Dancing With the Stars...it is too much of a stumbling block for me. Why? Well, just look at them. They have beautiful bodies that seem to move effortlessly. I made an agreement with satan that my body is just not up to par. It's just not good enough. I went from a small thought of "wow, they are beautiful" to "I'm not that beautiful...I don't have those nice curves... I could never be graceful like that" Those are all satan's lies and I AGREED with them. Sure, I don't look like that, but I don't have to fall for the lie that my body and grace are any less good. But, to keep those thoughts at bay...I just don't watch it. Another example would be realizing your
