this is such a fragile time.
and we can embrace it with fear or choose to respond with trust.
When change is as thick as the heat in the august air we are led to sit in the center of our father's hands. looking up at him with pleading curiosity because we, as humans, so desperately desire to know the next step the next bit of dialogue the next catastrophe and miracle. We look up into the presence of Jesus, eyes laden with innocence and maybe a sparkle of fear.
the truth is that it is extraordinarily terrifying that we do not know what is next.
the past few days or so satan has been tempting me to be afraid because as so many new choices and feelings and obligations approach, we become vulnerable to the devil's tools; anxiety, worry, doubt, wounded confidence, and ,, fear.
But here i ask jesus to wake me up in every way of the word, every way possible, that he lead me down every endless route of awakening. because we are no longer slaves to satan's fantasies. Fear is a deadly poison but it's power has been made completely obsolete by the blood of Jesus Christ.
i choose you, i choose joy
yes, part of our earthly journey is meeting spiritual obstacles and overcoming satan's attacks, these things cannot be avoided. however they can be detected and brought to a screeching halt with the sound of holy His name. be on guard.
the light God pours into us, radiates externally as joy, love, peace of mind, goodness, purity, honesty, and hope. Satan hates when these qualities are exposed to the world because he is absolutely terrified of their power. the enemy cringes in fear at the power alive underneath your skin.
you have authority. as children of the king, we must not allow fear and anxiety to enslave us.
this is only possible by hiding in our heart the truth of who we are, where we came from, and where we are going. -chosen. from Him. to Him. - His. his hands. his kingdom.
you are important.
