Why is it that christian people, I mean people who really love the Lord, who know what it means to fully trust in Him and believe that He is greater than anything the devil throws their way are being so attacked??
In the last week I've had several friends, people who are very close to my heart, very dear to me, that are being put through such great struggles. Why must so much heart ache come to so many good people? I don't always understand, the other day I thought, Wouldn't it be nice if, once we truly believed in Christ, I mean TRULY believed, we wouldn't have to go through so many great struggles. The occasional up hill battle perhaps, but no more deep down, painful struggles. But, if that really was the way our christian walk was, would we believe that we really needed God at all? It would make it so easy to just live our lives without ever thinking about Him. I believe that when we go through these struggles, this is when God is most powerful in our lives. We live because He does, if we forget that, what do we have left?
To all of my friends and those of you who I do not know and may be going through a rough time in your life: be strong, hold fast, when you've done all else, STAND. Do not let the devil move you, look him straight in the face and say NO, God IS in control, He is here and He will see me though this!
Be strengthened, be encouraged and most of all, through it all STAND!
Can you ever go home? It's a good question, but now that I've been back here for a little more than four years, I thought it was time to change my title and in the process maybe actually get back into blogging assuming I'm not lost forever in this place we call the world wide web.
