Things are always happening. Sometimes I forget about spiritual warfare and it just gets pushed to the back of my mind. I don’t know that I necessarily downplay it, but I wish it was at the forefront of my thoughts more often.

Last Sunday at church, Alan talked about vows and what the Bible has to say about them (a lot actually). Obviously one thing that jumps into mind is wedding vows. At the end of the sermon I took Amanda to the altar (mainly just some steps in front of the stage where the band plays) and prayed for and over her — out loud.

It didn’t really hit me until just now that all this week Amanda and I haven’t been running as smoothly as we usually do. We aren’t arguing or fighting about anything, but rather we are becoming more easily annoyed with each other over small things. I publicly prayed over my wife and for the past 6 days it has been somewhat of a struggle to feel like toward her. Coincidence?

If this small testimony can help you in any way, I hope it helps you know that standing up for Christ and doing things with your life to follow Him just might bring some trials your way. Remember to keep doing what you are doing and continue to know that He will bring you through it.
