This morning I woke up angry, not at God, but at Satan. I dreamt about the truck driver that killed my family last night. I found him on Facebook and saw a man that looked like an addict. But as I looked through his pictures, I saw a past of family and joy and that is what made me angry. Satan comes in, if we allow him, and destroys everything.
I don’t remember the driver’s name. I forgot it as soon as I heard it, on purpose. I didn’t want to hold onto it and let him be the source of my anger. Because, I’ve said this before, I envision demons clinging to him, causing him to drive that truck into their car.
This morning, as I tried to run but couldn’t, I walked and cried. The anger came rushing out and I just couldn’t bear it. There are so many hurting hearts in this world. Many people have used the words, “Lord, come quickly!” in expressing their sorrow for us. But I just keep thinking, “No! Not until more souls are saved!” I want everyone to come to know the peace and joy God gives us.
In a conversation with a friend the other day, I said that because of the tragedies his family and mine have been through people will be more willing to listen to us. I said it is time to be BOLD! I hope this is true because here goes…
If you are looking for worldly things to comfort you it won’t work. Love/sex, family/children/grandchildren, drugs/alcohol, tv/gaming, food, health/fitness, travel, shopping, sports, work, money, etc. These are things that we are told will bring us joy if we do them right. But I’m here to tell you, they won’t! None of these things would help me through what I’ve been through and if I relied on any of them I would most likely be a horrible, sad, depressed version of myself. God and His word lift me up and keep me going. He is faithful. He is loving. He is compassionate. He corrects and molds us into who He created us to be if we let Him.
Loosen the grip of the demons that have their claws in your flesh. I have to do this everyday. Sometimes multiple times a day. My love for Him isn’t perfect but His love for me is. He loves you in the same way. Come to know Him and receive the gift He freely gives to all of us. Don’t let Satan win your heart! I love you all so much and want to spend eternity with you worshiping the One who made us all!
