Before I tell of my report to you all who encouraged me while under this attack. I first wanted to to give a word picture of how it feels to me when I am under these attacks.

It is like being surround by a pack of wolfs they are hunched in the back and their eyes are totally focus on looking for a weak spot, their teeth are bared looking for a way pass your defences. They wear you down with their nips at your legs and arms trying to take you off guard while another sneaks in for the kill.
you are out numbered and it is a deadly dance one that most do not surivie. It is a matter of time before they bring you down.

You would think after all the years I have faced in these kind of circimstances that I would not become off balanced. And it bothers me when I do. I a christian who understands spirit warfare, I am a seasoned warrior. yet i have these times when i feel like a new born babe in Jesus.
The devil has been attacking me on this. I almost did not write that post asking for prayer. I did not want anyone to know that I could not handle these circumstances. Pride is the down fall of many a good people.
I wrote it anyway. I cryed out anyway.
As soon as i had typed the last words people were posting to me. And as I read I felt like I was not alone and people joined me in that circle and had my back spiritually.

I could continue to breath, to stand, to fight I recovered my balance and felt streghten.

I was not alone and I have learned during this attack what the missing piece has been? I do not call out for help to others when I am under attack. I hold it in, I cry to my Father, and he has never let me down. But, by holding it in I have found it is so much harder, so much more angish to bear when you hold it in and let it eat at your enter most being.
Jesus is the answer and the deliver and he is ture to his word.
But, other christian sister and brothers are the physical arm of Jesus. Whether it is through touch, or word, or deed. I felt an army rise up in my defence. and I love each of you for it.

so now to tell you my praise report.
As I told the ele co. would not give me one more day. "Everyone has a story" but again I called my sister in law and told her what had happened.
She asked for the phone number to the ele company and my account number. She called and was going to pay the bill with a credit card, but they would not except her card, because her name was not on my account. But, before she hung up with the lady she said after she got off the phone with me she stuck her neck out and post poned the cut off until monday. ( The lady did not call me and tell me that) my sister in law called back and told me had until monday. I was praising God!!! and thinking about you guys. I do not think if i had not asked for prayer there would have been that much power to move that lady's heart. just talking to her I could feel the coldness in her.

My bill got paid!!!

and as for the man that owns the land, well that is still a work in progress.
My son is going to re-dig and place the line in the right tank. that is a start. while I was gone to Austin my yard grew up to waist high. and the riding lawn mower was broke. My son came today and mowed my yard so while I sit here on my computer at the kitchen table I can see a freshly cut yard. This was a thron in my side because it was just one more thing I could not do. I could not take care of it.

My friend who said they knew how to put down the sewer line called today. i told her about what she did and she told me well did you tell him to go to H---? I was shocked. This was my fault, why would I be angry with him? He has every right to be up set. And want it fixed. All she had to say was well what are you going to do? Which this is find she has always been that way. But I still love her.
I really did not except anything more out of her.

And my car, well I called the man and told him about everything. He told me he understood. My son kept his word and he paid the notes on my car friday that he was suppose to pay. so my car is now caught up too.

all these things started happening thursday evennoon and into friday. I was waiting to see if there would be something more I could tell yall about the sewer. But I will just have to give another praise report when the answer is revealed on that!

I have felt the pressure let up greatly but the devil has been harassing me about the sewer trying to make me worry. It has been like every other hour that pops into my head, what are you going to do about it.
Well the Holy Spirit revealed something to me just shortly ago.

everytime I think about the sewer, praise God for the reminder that he is in control and it is finished! He will and has already made the plans on the sewer problem to be solve, Praise God! So that is what I am doing.

Also the man that owes the land lives in Mo. so he has to drive here from there. i asked God to bless him and prosper him so much in his business that he would be so busy that he did not have time to worry about down here. Which would give more time to solve the sewer problem. either way it will be taken care of.

I also have applied for a program called dads, it is where my mother's medicaid pays for a caregiver which is me. Please keep this in your prayers that this will work out as well. That way I will be able to focus on my mama and still be able to pay my bills.


My God bless each of you wonder people. Thank you again for your prayers.

God is faithful to those who love Him. Praise the Lord sis...this is wonderful news...God is moving. Don't worry on the sewer sis...sounds like God has a plan for that already as well...and it's just gonna take Him a little more time to get everything in place on that...so grab hold of patience...cuz He's got it. I want you to know sis...I've prayed for you many times this week...yesterday I was driving down the road thinking of you and your situation...praying that God would move...and I'm so glad He has.

I will continue to keep you in prayer. I could just you. God is good all the time...even when the ride is rough...He is still in control.

luv ya lots sis

my sister mlg,

You have been someone very special to me since I have been on Oasis. There are no words of gratitude that can express my heart felt appreciation of you.

I gave the pictures of wolves because, I think God is trying to teach me something. I have very many weakness. Less than I once had. Praise God! I think this is a step in that learning process? If it is then I can rejoice even in the anguish I feel when in such an attack. Because once i get it I got it! And it can not ever be used against me again.

I am not talking about not having problems. We all have trails and tribulations. But I am talking about how i respond and react toward them.


I am learning to not only pray and seek God but call out for reinforcements when I am under that kind of attack. each one I have responded the same way with great fear and a since of being torn to pieces spiritually. You would think I would have learned how to respond before I get to the state of mind I was in. I have prayed for years about this type of situation. As I have said there have been so many of them in my life. I praise God I think I understand what the missing piece as been now. I will call out.




Thank you again for your continual support.

Your sis in Jesus Christ

Sandra What wonderful news.

When I saw the prayer forum lite up and your name as the last one posted I knew this was going to be a praise report!

Nearly cried when I read this. God is so good. He loves His children! And cares about every little and not so little thing in their lives.

As far as holding to yourself, I'm glad you are learning to lean on others. We are one body. Not meant to go off and do it alone. Lean on me, when you're not strong. And I know you'd do the same for me.

Love ya!!!

[sandrad05]

Oh my sweet pine,

I have no words right now you have made me cry. Which is a good thing not bad.

You are absolutly right I will always answer your call and stand with you!


I am praising God! My spirit is up lifted and I give all glory to my Father who has shown me he has many children all whom are my family.

God is always on time ...

Our ideology of timing just aint His at times.

We just tend to get nervous during the waiting game.

Waiting tests and proves that Faith and enhances patience for next trial.

Very happy for ya sister.

Praying for God's will to be done for ya cuz He knows what is best.

Luv ya

I want to thank you for stopping by and posting. I know that you are very busy and I am touched that you took the time.

As I have been saying I am just awe struck at the family I have found here a Oasis. I thank my Father every time i come into this site for I know he led me here. And it is by his divine will that I am here.


Thank you again O
