I think I took too big of a bite off....

"Dear Lord, please let me make it through the next two weeks!!!" has been my constant prayer the past few days. We are preparing for the STAND, a youth event with nearly 1000 Springfield youth coming! Josh had the vision and is directing this movement. I am so proud of him, but so tired too. Between his meetings and band rehearsals, and my meetings and vocal rehearsals, it feels so overwhelming. But when I take a breath and a step back, I realize that really I am not doing anything. It is the Lord who is using us both as instruments and that is pretty awesome! Please pray for our family, our marriage, our health, the volunteers (over 100 of them!), and the youth that will be attending this event. We know that the 1Peter 5:9 is the basis of the whole event: "your enemy the devil lurks around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. RESIST him, STANDING FIRM IN THE FAITH!"
I have personally been feeling under attack but I know that I have the strength of Jesus Christ sustaining me.
Check out The Stand's website: www.thestandministries.com
Also, MOP's is starting up soon(two days after the stand) and I have so much to get prepared before then. So, I need prayers there too!!!
