i always dread the weeks prior to joint meetings.
(preface: for anyone who reads my blog & doesn't know, i belong to a church body that has several congregations and once every few months, all of the congregations get together on a Sunday morning and have our church meetings together. we typically gather in a school auditorium though, we've also been known to meet other places. we call these joint meetings.)
the week before joint meetings, the enemy ALWAYS (it NEVER fails) attacks me. hardcore. emotionally, spiritually, physically...whatever he can get his grubby hands on... that's where the attack is.
well this week has been one of those weeks.
i went home last weekend to visit my family & my brother was home visiting from Utah so it was a great time, better than most times when i visit my parents anyway. minor things irritated me and i did get into a pretty serious fight with my dad, but we made up and moved on right? so...why do i say it's been such an annoying week?
just little things i suppose.
everyday i seem to wake up ridiculously irritable.
cranky as all get out.
physically, i'm just exhausted.
emotionally, i feel so empty and i don't want to be around people at all.
i've been really off kilter at work and the things that usually come easy to me feel like i'm swimming upstream.
a friend of mine asked me to do this art project for him.
normally? not a problem at all right?
not this week.
the only thing i can accurately feel is irritation and frustration this week.
i don't even know why.
i just know that i hate the week before joint meetings.
whatever you're up to God, i hope it smashes the enemy's face into the dirt.
i'm really sick of him right now.
glory to the King who is in control!!
