Being Reminded

I am reminded tonight that when their are times when the road is unknown, the path not as clear as we would like it. The evil one will use that to his advantage. To try and derail us from the path of Christ. Using fear and doubt in our hearts to try and stop us from seeing the amazing glory of Christ our Savior. To try and convince us that our fate is sealed and the outcome is all in the negative. The evil one will try to plant images in our hearts of every bad thing that could happen.

Tonight I am also reminded of how important prayer is. That it is a tool to combat the evil with in our own hearts. That it truly is the light that shines on in the darkest places. That by asking for the Holy Spirit to help us in our time of need. That it becomes a beacon and a lantern that can guide us though the biggest storms in our hearts. That prayer is a reminder that above all else. Our Father in Heaven loves us deeper than we could ever hope to realize. Those who dismiss the power of prayer fail to understand it's important to those who openly, and boldly proclaim Christ. That we have embraced something far greater than ourselves.

Every storm that we face in our lives. Their is always a chance the evil one will take advantage. It is a time when we are at our weakest. Yet by embracing Christ our Savor. By embracing God the Father. Along with the power of the Holy Spirit. We become strong again and that we can face our storms head on. In the middle of my own storm tonight. I was reminded of this in a powerful way. I ask as always for your prayers for me. For the things that I am involved in. Knowing that I will pray for you as well.

Till then.
