What Are You Fighting For?

Depression. Addiction. Low Self-Esteem. Anger. Old age. Illness. Traffic. Weight gain. Jealousy. Fear. Pain.

There is an endless battle that rages against us every hour of every day. We fight against forces seen and unseen, in relentless pursuit of victory. As we labor to claim what is rightfully ours, our enemy charges ahead, forcing us to hold the shield and pray for deliverance. We are not alone.

Our battles may be common to all or unique to only us. In reaching out to others and carrying each other's burdens we become strong and empowered. We refuse to become immobilized and we refuse to back down. We are mighty warriors, striving to defeat and conquer. We will prevail.

Every day a battle rages but His power is made perfect in our weakness. We will overcome.

What are you fighting for today?

I am writing an article right now that deals with a battle against evil that occurred in our family. The hair on the back of your neck stands straight up when your granddaughter tells you she has two spirits.

Great point! We all have our own struggles, that's why carrying each others burdens is so important. I love this "In reaching out to others and carrying each other's burdens we become strong and empowered. We refuse to become immobilized and we refuse to back down. We are mighty warriors." Great post! Glad to be a new follower!:)
