Why is it that hell pulls out all the stops to try to keep you from doing something as simple as going to church?
Could it be that the devil sees that as long as he can keep you in a place where you are least effective, he makes your life so much less than it could be for God?
Hm. Makes me want to run to God all the more, not the opposite. Drat, guess the devil loses again! lol.

Love Passionately, Love True; but above all, Love.
It is better to love passionately and true, than close up your heart and become part of the living dead stew.

Getting It
God has a plan for your life, but the specifics you want so desperately are revealed only as you are committed to the journey of devotion and discipleship. God wants you to know His will. Delight yourself in Him; put aside preconceived notions, and concentrate on trust, obedience, and a personal relationship with Christ. Wait patiently on Him, and at the right time, the answer will come.
Every time we are called to obey God, our faith is challenged and our true nature revealed. When our hearts are set on obedience, then God responds mightily. There will be moments in life when you may ask, “Lord, is this a matter of obedience?” If so, choose to obey in faith, then “let down your nets” and prepare for a tremendous blessing. As we move forward in obedience, we can thank God in advance for the miraculous blessings coming our way!

Faith
Faith does not come from trying harder or digging deeper or praying longer. Faith comes from our view of God – the bigger we see God as being, the more faith we have. Get your eyes off of circumstances, and off of self, and put your eyes on God.
Glory
We were created to bring glory to God in all that we do. That is our life’s mission. That is our purpose. All that we do, all that we go after, all that we believe for in life, must be things that bring glory to God.
Reward
The harder that the devil pushes you, the bigger the impact your faith and faithfulness is going to have if you see it through. The hardest opposition, brings the greatest reward. God will use those who are willing to stick it out, those who are ready to be faithful, and those who can be counted on.
Dreams
When God puts a dream in your heart, it may look impossible in the natural. Every voice may tell you it will never happen, but if you will believe and stay in faith, and expect good things, you too can defy the odds. God would not have put the dream in your heart if he had not already given you everything you need to fulfill it. If I have a dream or desire, and I know it’s from God, I don’t have to worry whether I have what it takes to see that dream fulfilled; I know God doesn’t make mistakes.
