Spiritual Warfare
It is the day before Thanksgiving. We have two vehicles. Usually, one is road worthy. In the past 2 months, we have replaced 2 tires, a few days ago, the TPMS light went off in the van and I discovered a screw in one of the older tires. Yesterday, Hubby went to get an oil change and they told him the serpentine belt was in bad shape and needed to be replaced. We've done this before, not easy, but DIY-able. It has turned into a 2-day project with multiple trips to the parts store, hours of YouTube videos, phone calls and text messages. I expected when I got back from getting the tire replaced this morning that we would be ready to go. It is the busiest travel day of the year, there are no vans available to rent. Our other vehicle needs brakes and a fuel pump. It is not safe for a 2 plus hour drive in Thanksgiving traffic. This sucks... I am supposed to cook Thanksgiving dinner at my parents' tomorrow. Nana has a very aggressive degenerative brain disease, so this might be our last Thanksgiving. 😥 Poppie is ready to bring a truck with a tow bar, but Hubby and Number One Son will keep trying. One might expect that I would be angry or sad, I am just numb.
I am very distracted, I'm having trouble focusing on anything. Now would be a good time to pray and ask for heavenly assistance. I am seriously doing the best I can, I have so many worries and the evil one continues to make life so very difficult for us.
Pray for us!

Sancte Michael Archangele,
defende nos in proelio;
contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium.
Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur:
tuque, Princeps militiae Caelestis,
satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
divina virtute in infernum detrude.
Amen.
Michael the Archangel by Guido Reni, Santa Maria della Concezione, Rome, 1636
