Why I need prayer
I have never felt the opposition greater in my life. After men's retreat the devil has been working. I do not know what it is. Questions has arised. Never felt so distant from God. Unexplained anger wells up inside of me sometimes because the questions and feelings. As I looked out the window I saw darkness mixed. Never felt like this in my entire life. Please pray. The devil has been bombarding me with lies like never before.

Nathan, you've got me worried. What kind of questions are rising up and upsetting you so?
Is there any way that I can help?
Go read my second to the last post at my pastoral blog: letterstotheflock.blogspot.com
I hope that you can draw some encouragement from it. It is basically what I would tell you right now, except to add that God is not the author of confusion--that's Satan's territory--and that our anger "worketh not the righteousness of God."
Remember, when Jonathan smote the Philistine garrison, they immediately responded by declaring all-out war on the Israelites. Even so, Jonathan and his armor bearer were not intimidated by the fact that they were outnumbered by tens of thousands of soldiers and those two men brought the Spirit of God into the midst of the battle, snatching victory for the nation and striking such fear into the hearts of their enemies that those Philistines began to kill each other.
Don't let the enemy intimidate you just because God's doing great things in your life and promising even greater things to come.
