I've been pretty exhausted lately - tired of trying to work through all my crap and feeling frustrated and stuck. So Sunday night I decided to go home instead of to the prayer meeting, but as I was driving I changed my mind and went to ask for prayer instead. I really didn't want to. I kind of felt like just being miserable by myself. But...I've felt like God wants to use this semester for healing for all of us and for real ministry to take place between people in our homegroups. And I've felt like that would start through confession and prayer (cause it says so in James 5:16). it sure did. After people prayed for me at the prayer time sunday night, I was finally able to "take up my tambourine and dance with the joyful" again for the first time in a while. I know God wants to continue to heal me and bring more freedom, and he wants to do the same for other people too. So, just as a forewarning, I'll probably be asking for a lot more help carrying my burdens this semester (Gal 6:2). And I want to encourage you all to be willing to ask for prayer when you need it too.
