I've been letting Satan kick me around lately, and I'm tired of it. For the past few weeks I've let him rob me of my joy, making me resentful and frustrated and discouraged. I've been praying and reading my Bible as usual, and that's all been good, but as soon as I get up or put my Bible down, BAM, something's not right and I'm upset about it and taking it out on whoever I feel is to blame or whoever's closest. A lot of it I've held inside, non-confrontational as I am, but I can feel myself not smiling or laughing, if that makes any sense. I feel like a black cloud.
So at BCM tonight, the first song started...I'm trading my sorrows, I'm trading my shame, I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord...that's what I choose. I choose joy.
Feel free to pray for me!
