Thoughts on Day Eleven of the Fast

It's 6:33 a.m. on this, the eleventh day of the fast. This morning, I don't have much time to get myself and Sissy dressed because I've been asked to speak at the FCA gathering this morning at Cameron High School.

The verse that was placed on my heart last night after Paige Featherstone asked me to speak was Ephesians 6:10:

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

And the second verse that was placed on my heart this morning follows it in Ephesians 6:13:

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

No matter what comes against us--today, tomorrow, this week, this month, this year, we can be strong in Him, in the MIGHT that He is and has. We can do our best to put on the whole armor of God to do battle...and even in those times when we feel we have thrown our last punch and taken our last punch, we have instruction here to just STAND confidently because HE IS WITH US and HE SAYS WE CAN DO IT.

God, help me to hear you today, help me to speak the words you have intended today for these students at Cameron High School. And thank you for the opportunity.
