Battle Buddy: Day 9

This one is coming at you late! I had a meeting with my men’s group leader that took some time so please forgive me! Today felt a little more fiery. I almost had a sense of firmness to myself and found that I was more willing to be confrontational at work when the need arose. I pray that God uses this time to change me in the ways the He wants me to. I’m tired of living a life at my own control because it has only ever produced despair and a lack of joy. True joy can only be found in the Father and can even be found in trials (James 1). I pray for you men to not go at this alone, find someone you can walk through this with that will push you closer to God and be accountable to you when it gets difficult. Michael! : I pray that you will overcome each challenging morning through your faith. The enemy is desperate and will try everything in their tool book. You have an almighty God that you can turn to in order to keep them at bay. Let the Lord be your strength and pray without ceasing. I’m so proud of how far you have come and appreciate taking the straight and narrow path with you!!
