I'm going to France for a Missions trip. Just sayin...
Really, I know that just saying there doesn't make any sense, I just wanted to say it.
I'd like to report that I had a serious for real attack, I believe, over going to France. I was going to a prayer conference with some friends where I was going to ask for prayer for the upcoming trip. We went to dinner nearby 1st. At the end of a meal, I started getting itching and mouth burning, and a few more symptoms related to allergic attacks. Took some Benedryl and had friends pray for me and we went to the conference site. But I never got inside. Got pains in my lower extremity that kept growing worse and worse. The cool thing is that it was a prayer conference, so I got lots of it. Then the paramedics came, and the blessed gift of pain meds as I had my first joy ride in an ambulance. Thankfully, I had a wonderful paramedic taking care of me who asked the driver to slow down as the bumps were a killer. Turns out I had a cyst on my ovary. Mystery, why did it start with allergy symptoms and I would then have the other.
Best news of all is that the pain was virtually gone in 3 hours. It seems that the cyst didn't burst from Sonogram, which I think is also good news.
But I went back to that conference the next afternoon, and got my prayer,( awesome prayers at that) and a wonderful spiritual refueling.
I figured if the enemy didn't want me to get prayer there that badly, the prayer must be very important for me to get. And if the enemy was at work, what a silly thing to do to attack me right in front of a conference with hundreds of people there for the purpose of praying!
"The gates of Hell will not prevail against us."
"If God is for us, who can be against us?"
I could go on, but I think you get the point. Just sayin'
