In Need Of Prayer

I have a situation, y'all. I can't go into much detail ... but I can tell you that I need prayer.

I feel like the enemy is trying to step in and take my peace from me and I don't like it at all. I have been doing so good of late. I have been really focussed on my studies. I have been enjoying Prof. Horner's Bible-Reading System and doing really well with it. I have noticed some big changes in me spiritually. My constant prayer of late has been for the Lord to make me into the person He wants me to be. I want to be that "new creature" in Christ and I don't want anything in me to hinder the Holy Spirit's work in me.

Then this situation came up and I have tried to not let it bother me. I have prayed for this person to have truly made a change in their life ... all the time feeling that if they had we wouldn't even be dealing with the situation in the first place ... but still praying anyway. And, considering some of the things already said and done ... I know nothing has changed. My flesh is screaming to deal with this and my spirit is tired.

I know I can do nothing but give this situation to God. I know this person can really do nothing but cause irritation ... I just don't feel up to being irritated by their childishness or games. The enemy knows who to use in your life and I truly believe he is using this person. The bad thing is he isn't just using them against me. He is also using them to get to a friend of mine as well and who knows how much trouble this person will start before it is over.

Just please join me in prayer over this situation. I have no interest in losing my peace and I know the enemy is not strong enough to take it. That is on me. I also know that I cannot let my old nature step into this situation. Not only would it get ugly, but it would also give the enemy a victory that he doesn't deserve.
