"Team Steam"
So it's been QUITE a week. I don't feel at liberty to divulge all the gory details of the conflict I've had this past week so I'll just say that it's been rough to say the least. Please, please, please pray for me...
Satan is really attacking me and my team right now. He is trying to cause disunity by amplifying petty differences and they are seroius hindrances to us operating together as one, cohesive unit. He's definitely working over time and OH, do I feel it.
She and I are just not seeing eye to eye at all right now and we haven't really resolved our conflict either. We have only acknowledged that there are certainly some major miscommunication problems and probably some deeper issues there as well, on both ends, I guess.
I need patience, I need the Lord, and again I need to remind myself that I need to die-die to self, die to self-justification, die my rights, and the desire to vindicate myself. The Lord has reminded me this week that He is my vindicator. I need to let Him be the one that vindicates me. I need to relinquish control and allow Him room to work.
I am always tyring to make people see me in the right light but sometimes it's just not possible and it's too idealistic of me. The Lord is trying to make things real and help me to realize that people will sometimes just have a wrong perception of me or a serious misunderstanding, and I need to let that go.
But what frustrates me most is how the conflict strikes at the core of what I've been working at with my own boundaries. I feel my boundaries have been breached and I'm not quite sure how to respond to it. I have addressed what she has done and have confronted her and held her accountable for her actions. But how do you do that while dying to yourself and your own sin?!?!?!?!
So please pray for me...I need your prayers. This is a "burden" that I need to share with you. And I hope you will share it with me and uplift me in your prayers.
And please pray for our upcoming tour.
