Calling All Prayer Warriors!

My dear Siestas,

I come to you once again with a request. If you've been following this blog you know that I've been wresting with some pretty deep stuff lately. I spent some time talking to my pastor today. He posed another series of questions that I really need to dig down deep and consider. I know I don't have "peace" right now and know that's probably exactly where God has brought me--to a place of desperation.

So, right now, I'm headed into an extended time of fasting, prayer, and meditation. I'm blessed that I don't have any obligations until Friday. My kids have agreed to chip in and afford me this time alone. So there are no physical obstacles. I can spend some serious time at His feet.

What I'm asking of you is that you stand in the gap and cover me in prayer while I shut the rest of the world out and simply focus on Him--of hearing that still soft voice--and doing nothing other than "being still" (not an easy thing for me). I especially need you to pray for protection from spiritual attack and discernment on my part.

Frankly, I'm tired, weak and at a point of breaking. I need my Savior more than I've ever needed Him before! The good news is as you already know, that I don't have to rely on my own strength, do I?

Thank you all for your prayers. I'll be back in a while. . . hopefully stronger and with a real sense of peace and direction.

Love in Christ,
~Cheryl
