The most effective way to lose the battles we face in life is to fall prey to the negative voice that keeps reminding us of our failures. So you messed up. So what? Now is the time to remember who has your back. The Holy Spirit is your guide, not the whispering voices of doom and discontent. Christ is your constant companion who can only be displaced by doubt. God knows you clear to the core and can take you forward. Dissatisfaction and doubt takes you backward. You have the three-in-one, the Holy Trinity all around you to pick you up, dust you off and walk beside you. Giving into temptation once doesn’t doom you forever, unless you allow it to. No matter what you are doing, you have an all-powerful team on your side. Instead of looking down in despair, look up into the light of heaven.
Beautiful, Sharon, and so true. Many people walk in defeat when just one upward look will bring the victory. I would much rather walk with Jesus than the enemy of our souls. As the saying goes, the benefits are out of this world.
