This week God taught me a new game.
"Find the snake."
When I'm frustrated.
Find the snake.
When I'm downcast.
Find the snake.
When I'm discouraged.
Find the snake.
Where are his lies?
What is he trying to get me to believe?
What situation is he using to drag down my joy?
When you pinpoint the source of the lies, it's much easier to preach truth into those areas.
Where is satan feeding lies and desperation? Where am I believing him?
As I look back on this week, to the moments when I was on the verge of tears, to the moments when all hope seemed lost, and to the moments when the light at the end of the tunnel seemed so out of reach, I realize how much I need to learn this game.
In those moments, when I stopped and thought about it, satan was right in front of me. His lies hold much less hold when you expose them in the light.
Thanks, Lord, for continuing to teach me. For loving me when I allow myself to get discouraged and dragged down by lies from the deceiver. Thanks, Lord, for continuing to point me to Christ.
To the Cross I cling. Even in my suffering, HE is my all in all.
Every last breath I breath, every broken song I sing, He is my all in all.
