Whew Lord! I am Thankful for the ability to GET BACK UP when I fall short of God’s Glory. On Day 37, I am BACK UP AGAIN! AMEN AND THANK GOD for the opportunity of second chances.
So often, during my journey, I have failed to remain obedient to the word of God. Many times, I have fallen and have succumbed to the enemy’s trap. Last evening was one of those times. Frustrated and fed up with the disrespect, I found myself quickly lashing out. I ignored my opportunity to rise above the disrespect and instead, returned the disrespect I received.
Today, realizing that I failed miserably, I used God’s grace to GET BACK UP. As I continue on my journey, I realize that the more I attempt to maintain my peace, and the more Christian-like I work to become, the harder I have to work. The enemy seeks to destroy. That is, and always will be his job; therefore, I must be prepared at all times and continue to pray for patience.
Even after four years, I am still being financially abused by the narcissistic tactics of the one who seeks to destroy me. Still I am held hostage in a marriage that he walked away from four years ago. Still, daily, I struggle to rise above all of the challenges that are thrown at me on this journey of lessons, losses, and blessings. Yes, I FALL, BUT I GET BACK UP.
Regardless of what is to come, and how often the enemy continues to disturb my peace, I vow to keep fighting. Even on the days that I fall short; I know that there will be other times that I sometimes will fall short again, I WILL GET BACK UP and continue my journey. My peace, however, will not be disturbed. I know God’s purpose for my life and that is my focus.
