He's Mine

A few nights ago, I began to pray through the things that were bothering me most about my life. So many things had been throwing me off balance, and I was definitely not content with where I was. After praying through everything, I settled down and whispered to my God, "I'm Yours." 

Without hesitation, He whispered back to me, "Sandie, I'm yours." 

I knew what He meant...

Am I alone? ...He's my Friend.
Am I wounded? ...He's my Healer.
Am I lost? ...He's my Guide.
Am I dying? ...He's my Savior.
Am I confused? ...He's my Teacher.
Am I depressed? ...He's my Light that lights up my darkness.
Am I sad? ...He's my Joy
Am I unloved? ...He's the One who loves me.
Am I afraid? ...He's my Protector. 
Am I fearful? ...He's my Defender.
Am I surrounded? ...He's my Tower in whom I can hide.
Am I weak? ...He's my Strength.
Am I poor? ...He's the One who takes up my cause.
Am I angry? ...He's my Prince of Peace: the One who calms my soul.
Am I misunderstood? ...He's my Counselor: the One who hears my heart. 
Am I hurting? ...He's my Comforter.
Am I helpless? ...He's my Father: the One who takes care of me.
Am I hopeless? ...He's my Hope: the One who planed my future.
Am I unsure? ...He's my Guide.
Am I flawed? ...He's my Righteousness. 
Am I discouraged? ...He's my greatest Encourager: the One who cheers me on.
Am I in bondage? ...He's my Deliverer.
Am I guilty? ....He's the One who justifies me.
Am I rejected? ....He's the One who accepts me.

"The name of the Lord is a Strong Tower; the righteous runs into it, and is safe." -Proverbs 18:10

Every Girl's Battle

I walked all alone down the leaf-strewn sidewalk, my hands in my pockets. A dark figure came out of the shadows and walked towards me. I could not make out who it was, but I sensed an evil about him -an evil that threatened my beautiful surroundings. And then he spoke in a forceful tone. "You had better face it. You are alone, and it will always be that way. Nobody really loves you. You just think they do. Really, though, you are alone." I tried to fight back the tears as the reality of his words sank in. Was it really true? People seemed to like me, but really, did they? It seemed true enough. I was all alone in this world. Nobody really wanted to know what I had to say or think. It was just me, and that was it. Deep in thought, I failed to notice that the dark figure had left me to think about his lies alone.

A Secret Weapon

As I sit here, getting ready to share with you the biggest thing God has been doing in my life lately, I must start by being real. It is so easy to sit back on a morning when I feel no battles, no struggles and just live like I don't think I need God. Other days its so easy to worry about life and think about every detail of everything and wonder if it's going to be ok. Still other days, I find myself listening to Satan’s lies and believing him even though I know they aren’t true. Do you find yourself doing those things too? Why does Satan lie to us? Why is it that life seems"easy" one day, and then the next is the hardest ever? Let me help you out with this…

When Life Hurts...

Recently, I went through a very painful experience. The death of a dream I had thought was coming true. The loss of something I thought I had gained permanently. Never had I experienced something so difficult before. Never had I guessed that this was going to happen to me. ...But it did. And it hurt. I praise God for His healing power at work in me... As I write, I write not only to you, but to myself as one who is learning on this journey too.  This morning, as I was reading in the Psalms, I came across a Psalm that hadn't stood out to me in this way before. As I read, I realized that I was looking at me in the mirror of God's word.
