Paradox...

Discouragement. It is so powerful and crippling. How does a person push through even when everything you try seems to fail? I know, it isn't as bad as all of that, but it sure seems that way in the middle of the difficulties.
Counterbalance that with the gut feeling that I am doing what God wants me to be doing right now, and this burning inside of me to see this work done.
What is God doing? What is He trying to teach me? Do I have the strength to make it through? How is it all going to get done? Is God going to provide me the finances to keep going after December? (I'll admit, I have a hard time seeing how that could happen. I know we serve a God of miracles, but will He choose to work that way this time?) Is there something more I should/could be doing?
I really don't know the answers to any of these questions, but they are my constant companions these days.
Please pray for me that I will have the strength and endurance to push through until the end whenever that may be. (I leave this week for a 3 week trip to Ohio and Pennsylvania...)
In HIS care
