• Summer Time

  Summer time, fun time, play time, and free time. Lazy days, no schedule, summer camp, sleeping in, catching lighting bugs, watching storms roll in, beach, water, swimming, the smell of sun block, driving with the windows down, family vacations, picnics, and trips to Six Flags. 

  How do you describe summer?

  This summer I've been aware of one thing: our guards is down. 

  We so easily flip into "play mode" and satan sees the breach in our wall and takes advantage.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Have you found you slip in your daily quiet time?

  Is it easier to skip church in the summer?

  Do you find that your normal routine is so off, that making time for God is not a priority?

  With your kids around do you struggle for some quality prayer time?

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  God has impressed on my heart the need to raise the battle cry, to be more alert this summer, and be on guard. He's called me to do some random things... too weird to even post here (you'd really think I've fallen off my rocker). But I've obeyed what He has asked me to do. I am praying that we are keeping our walls strong and not allowing a breach in any wall of protection.  

  I've been praying like I have never before. I have this image of "storming the gates of heaven" for the Bride of Christ. That God's people will be aware of this "let down of our guard" and be even more keep of the battle we're in!
