Resistant

Did you wake up grumpy this morning, in a foul mood, and ready to pick a fight? I was struck by the fact yesterday that God encourages us to be resistant. Yes, He really does, and if you don’t believe me, look it up for yourself. (James 4:7.) Satan is the one that tempts us with all those negative emotions. We can’t just shrug them off. I had a great aunt that would literally stamp her foot and say “Get thee
behind me, Satan.” Try being resistant today. Maybe your day will be a whole lot brighter.

Fears


Never has it been so dark,
Rarely has it been so drear,
Hanging o’er my head an axe
Causing me such dreadful fears.

Eerie sounds of unknown source;
Swirling mists with lingering chill,
Self the cloak I huddle in
Feeling wretched, lost and ill.

Far away a cheery glow
Like a halo soft and bright
Beckons me to venture near
Creeping through the starless night.

The lamp of faith is offered me
Revealing then, a face so kind
Dispelling soon the fear of night
Comfort, now, in Christ I find. 

When hand in hand I walk with Him
The axe-head always disappears
I’ll gladly trust my faithful Guide:
He gives me courage, hope and cheer.
