Struggle or Overcome?
Today has seemed like some sort of dream for me. And I truly wish it were sometimes. I was in the middle of Target at lunchtime, just wondering around, not knowing what I was doing or why. There was this heavy weight on me. It was as if no matter how much I wanted to, I could not be happy. Surely, this is not from our Lord.
It was sometime while sitting at my desk, did I realize I need the Lord to lift off this burden, and take it away. There was not a long prayer, there was not any ritual, there was no beads or crosses, there was no kneeling or raising of arms ... but a mind and heart joining together to give my spirit back to the Holy Spirit. I truly believe I was being brought down by the evil one, in terms we have heard used by demonization. It is being influenced and used to become ineffective in the kingdom. Bringing down everyone around you, and having no hope.
Next time, I need to recognize it earlier. And listen to the words of comfort and advice I receive from my loved ones. Rejoice in the Lord. Be content will all things. Praise the name of the Lord in all I do.
