Hello Family,

At present Dylan and I are going through a period of greater growth in the Lord and we have been given some curly situations to pray for and have really been burdened about. My sister Gail needs prayer to be built up, as she feels she is going beyond what she can endure and more is required of her in every area of her life.

Dylan and I need prayer for a greater level of motivation and diligence as we go through this medical experience, he now has a back tooth that needs capping and is feeling the pain and we have reduced finances, our reliance is totally on the Lord as it feels an impossible situation. Also we really need to have victory in this court battle that we are going through. I haven't heard from the lawyer however I have a calmness about it. We really need victory for majority of areas in our lives.

Dylan and I need prayer for paitence and persistence with homeschooling. Right now Dylan is in a I can't remember mode and this is too hard for me in maths and he is finding it difficult to recall information, so we are now required for him to go back two years and to go over it again really slow and steady. This is a part of his learning process and difficulties....May I not harbour the frustration spirit, instead may I reside in the Lord's patience, motivation, persistence and diligence.

Also the Lord has called Dylan and I into prayer training and we will be go through a prayer training course (at home) slow and steady, It is going to be up to or even more than two years however the Lord has answered our prayers that we become very effective for him in our prayer ministry. Pray we don't give up, we don't go backwards, we go forwards in the Lord. I also have been feeling a bit hmmm with praying and feel we really need to rest and recharge in him.

The Lord has called me to write a book about the wilderness from a different perspective and already there are different writing ideas that are coming into my mind that are equally as wonderful, however please pray that I stick with this idea, I finish it and I then go out and send it off to a publisher. It is 2.30am and I have been woken up with the next stage of this book. It is cold and I found it difficult to get up, however this writing is going on and on in my head and so I am compelled. Yes I have complained, I would rather be sleeping right now and now I just feel this laughing as I feel the Holy Spirit very amused by all of this.

Finally the Lord is still giving me messages and promptings to send Luke information like Christian magazines as the Lord has burdened me that he is not being spiritually fed. Please pray that he will spiritually feed himself, I also am harbouring a prideful spirit as a part of me would prefer not to send him anything and Dylan is going "Mum don't send him anything, it will take longer for him to come back". However it is more important that he comes closer to the Lord right now and that he is being fed. The Lord has convicted me that I am to have a protecting love towards him. Yesterday I was resting in the Lord until the dogs and Dylan stessed me out and then Luke passed giving me an all happy and really joyus wave, yet I couldn't honestly give back to him cheer and joy, because I wasn't feeling like this, I was angry...and I don't want to be angry, or stressed. I want to be calm and beautiful in the Lord even in among the storms. Yes I am procrastinating right now cause I know I need to write, however it is always the starting that is difficult.

Please pray that I will be able to do what is required of me without wavering, collapsing, or giving up

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity

Serenity,

You, Dylan, you sister and Luke are all in my prayers.

I know how things start to happen when we draw closer to the Lord. Satan is trying to keep us back but we must not let him. That's why I am so happy to be connected with the body of Christ. There is always someone who can get a prayer through for us when we get weary.

I just got up off my knees praying and as the prayer ended I strted to receive chest pains. I don't know where they came from and I just started telling satan to flee from me.

I am not going to stop praying if this is what satan thinks. As a matter of fact, he is going to keep me on my knees longer the next time.

I will continue to pray fro you and you do the same for me because God knows that I need it.

All my love,
Praise Him

Hi Praise Him,

thankyou so much for praying for us. I wrote, it flowed and it is wonderful and it feels yes, great. I am writing again, phew... Right now we need victory in every part of our lives as you need victory in the Lord too. Incidently the magazine I sent to Luke is called Victory . Don't worry about the chest pains for the Lord will protect you and I am glad it just makes you more determined, cause that's exactly what we need to get a real determination.

Also Dylan woke up at 3.30 am and couldn't sleep so we are online watching church in the Body of Christ and we are looking at a talk about finances. There is also another talk on prayer and so I am stoked that it is about prayer...if u want to come it is on ccc.org.au under this week's sevices.

Also there is a prayer/fasting happening on thursday all day with the mum's, prayer and fasting for children and family's and so it might be good to tap into this as well. Amazing things happen in this church. It will be probably wednesday night in your time...

Love you Praise him keep going and will pray in the Holy Spirit and will keep on focusing for all members of the Body of Christ as we go through our wilderness experiences...Also your experience is being honoured as well as many others in this book and so I just go Amen Lord, thankyou ...

Peace be with you, surround you, enfold you and encase you Praise Him as you go closer, bigger, deeper, longer for the Lord, in Jesus' name, Amen.

Also when the Lord delivered me to this place, I knew it was happening years before and it took a while for the Lord to convince me. Then Dylan had to be convinced and everyone thought I was crazy. I did too at times. Anyway it was frustrating, cause I was ready to go, however nothing else was ready and it had to be lined up. When the Lord did take me out, it happened so quickly and as a result of the waiting my home sold for $32,000 more than I thought I could get for it. Praise Him what the Lord promises will come, it is a matter of holding on, resting and trusting in him, for when he fulfills those promises it happens at an amazing quick rate.

May you have a truly blessed day, in Jesus' name, amen...

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity
