Living among the weeds

I was cutting grass today and I could not believe how many weeds there were in the yard. The weeds had grown higher than the grass and flowers. No matter how much I cut the weeds down. They remain and next week they will arise again. But I am going to buy some weed killer. I don't want to cut the weeds down I want to eradicate them from dwelling in the yard. As long as they stay they will be an eye sore and the grass and flowers will not mature.

In our lives we can be surrounded by weeds. There are people and things in our life that can drain us and hinder our growth. No matter how much we grow they are always grow faster and we never seem to get to our full maturity. But God has some weed killer that will purge an agent that is hindering our growth. The weed killer is His Spirit. It purges and cleanse our lives so that nothing will prohibit our growth. When we are saturated by His spirit people are uncomfortable being in your presence. God filters the good people from the bad people. His spirit takes away all the unhealthy habits that cause us to be stagnate in our relationship with God. It is time to allow God to pour His spirit on us so that we can become what He has purposed us to be. God bless you.

A Calm Mind

As fears and doubts consume my mind. I fight to keep my sanity. I want to be free from these thoughts that have surrounded my thinking. As I struggle to stay focus as I see every situations through the distorted image of my fears. The stress pierces through my soul and I feel as though I am going to lose my mind. This internal battle is impossible for me to win. But in the moment that I decide to give up. My heart looks up. I remember that the battle is not mine but the Lord's. I surrender to Him as He carries His Sword(Word of God) against every thought that is against Him. He destroys my thoughts and holds my fears captive, replacing them with thoughts of peace, love, and joy. He calms my mind as my spirit rejoices within me. I don't have to fight my thoughts I have to submit them to Jesus Christ. He is my shield and buckler. Nothing can defeat me as along as I am under the protection of my King Jesus Christ. I can enjoy life with a sound calm mind because I know that God is here with me. I am never left alone to fight battles that I can't win. The battles are there to simply give me victory through Jesus Christ.

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; II Corinthians 10:5

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12
