We are home! The trip going to Charleston had many stumbling blocks but the one coming home was as smooth as silk.  I’m sure glad the time changed last night since we didn’t actually get to our house until a little after midnight.  This made getting up this morning at 6 a little easier even though I’d begun to wake up at 5.  There is much going on today so my mind was whirling.  I forget how much I do relax while gone.

As I was having my devotions and the fears of all that’s in store for today was attacking my mind I felt God saying to journal about them.  As I got to my journal I wrote down just that–“I’m sensing so many fears for today–don’t know the worship songs for this morning, choir number hasn’t been rehearsed for 2 weeks, the songs our group is doing twice today haven’t been rehearsed and I have a solo in one of them.  I’ll be letting everyone down including You–God.”

As I wrote this down an amazing mind picture came to me.  I saw Christ standing in the gap of my mind’s boundary.  He was telling me to give these old fears to Him.  He wasn’t going to let them own me any longer.  Satan can attack all he wants, but today I’m awake to the work of Christ in this area–His standing in the gap.  God really is doing amazing work.  Today’s lesson for the step study is exactly about all of this too.  As I went to prepare it I could hardly believe the parallel.  The guys are getting ready to face the fears of sharing their inventories.  God (Christ) is there for them just as He has shown Himself there for me.  Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
