So……I haven’t been wanting to write what I am about to, but basically God told me to.  My biggest fear in writing this series of blogs, is “What will my beloved F-squad think of me?”

My lovely F-squad ladies : )

I have been in the strangest season of my life….one that has taught me many a lesson, and not in an easy way. 
I don’t know why I thought after 4 years of serving God whole-heartedly, that I would be free from what I like to call “danger”. And not danger from the enemy….danger from myself.

This season is a Job season.
As much as it makes me want to puke to admit this….. I harbored a LOT of self-righteousness and a LOT of “I am more spiritual than you are, and I have it all together mentality.” YUCK!
I never realized it until these past few months….AND…….I have stumbled in these past few months….a LOT!
The girl that I have tried to beat out of me for the past 4 years, has reared her ugly head again, and with vengeance.

Temptations of my past life, have swirled all around me….and at first, it was easy to stand my ground. I wasn’t working, so I had ample time to spend with God in prayer and worship. My guard was up!
As soon as I started working full time, I no longer had that ammunition to fight and to resist. I didn’t realize how quickly and how easily it was for me to step back into being “her”. 
I though she was dead…..I thought I wouldn’t have to see her face anymore…but I was wrong.
