Standing Firm

In my last post I took a stand and said I would not allow Satan to steal my testimony any longer.  As I expected, he attacked harder.  I did NOT, however, expect it to be my daughter he attacked.  Well, I am here to say, he has not won and will not win.  We are moving on and won't even speak about the issue.  I will tell those who need to know what happened without commentary.  Satan will not get the satisfaction of stirring up resentment and thoughts of retaliation.  I am not one to believe that these people will reap the consequences because these people are merely being used by Satan.  They do not have a clue of the damage they wrought.  I release them from any responsibility for it and choose to see it for what it is.

My testimony is and will be joy.  My daughter will become a stronger person for it.  And Satan, you have lost.

In the meantime, let me tell you about my wonderful God!  An unexpected gift came today along with the most encouraging message I think I have ever received, and it could not have been more timely and relevant.  At first I cried.  I mean this was no small gift!  I wasn't sure if I should even keep it!  But God helped me to think about being in the giver's shoes and I realized that this person, in giving the gift, is RECEIVING a blessing also.  God is faithful to bless us for being His hands and feet.  It is often a blessing that only the person doing His work can feel or see.

To my dear friend who has asked to remain anonymous, I thank you, from the bottom of my heart.  I am praying for your 100 fold return!
