Feeling picked on

I am feeling picked on by satan. Does this ever happen to you? I know in my head it means I am doing something he doesn't like which means I am hopefully doing something right with God but in my heart it is just hard.
And each time you try to pick yourself up from being pushed down, you get knocked over again by something new.
It's not as bad as it sounds. I am just stressing about finances (aren't we all) and then as I start thinking about how I can cut back, where I can tighten the belt, we get hit with things like car repairs, new tires and homeowners dues.
So I guess that new bra I was going to get b/c the underwire broke in my old one will have to go to the bottom of the priority list.

Life changing decisions

My son accepted Jesus into his heart. We were talking about a classmate whose grandmother died and we were talking about what happens when you die. I guess he and his dad were just talking about this a few days before this so it was fresh in his mind. It took me completely by surprise. We have talked about it before and he said he would when he was older. He didn't even want to wait for his daddy to get home. The girls were taking naps and it was such a sweet moment of prayer for the two of us. Something I will never forget.
I just pray he continues to grow in the Lord and keep his amazing spirit of compassion and sweetness.
