Pep-Talk

My faithful one, I love you -you are mine. Come, dine with me today. 

My Father, you know me through and through. You know how uncomfortable it is to not be well, or to always be fighting something. Father you reign in my heart and in all of who I am -I trust in you through it all.

I love you my darling, and I will help you. 

Father, we’ve come so far..and it’s nearly done.

Yes it is.

I rest in you as we keep walking. Lord, it seems like after every recording, I’m either more tired than before or I sense more spiritual attack. I’ve come to expect this. A tool I’ve learned in the last little while is to give myself a pep talk, telling myself that I trust in You. That way I’m leading my mind instead of allowing myself to follow fear-filled thoughts. I can totally tell that by doing this, I feel more hope again. Your words bring life. Thank you Father for leading me to see and know this truth. I abide in you. 

Caroline, rest assured that I am near. I love you -all is well with you. 

Reflection:

I’m reminded that it’s good to catch the lie right when it shows itself, through how I’m feeling, so that I can counteract it with Gods truth. When I believe that God really is trustworthy and remind myself about that, it defeats the lie and doesn’t allow it to grow. I think we always need to take truth one step further in order to be set free from the opposite of it. If I know the truth about a lie but don’t do anything about it, the lie can quickly attack again and there’s a good chance of being overcome by it. But when I’ve been given a tool to help me use the truth as a weapon, then I have the upper hand and the lie has been defeated. Giving myself a pep talk by reminding myself that I trust in God, is the tool, and it worked!
