Good Morning! Heb 13:5 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." This Vs really hit home for me this morning. You see God really does talk to us through His Word, like I said the other day, you see this is one of my biggest problems, The Love of Money! And it is something I battle with on a daily basis. And that is something we must all realize. That we are always in the midst of a spiritual battle with Satan. One thing I think alot of us do is underestimate Satan's determination to discourage us and defeat us. Satan is a bully! And just like the bully back in school he attacks us at our weakest points. For me it is money, for someone else it may be sex or Co-Dependency, Addiction etc, etc. But God is there for us always and He wants to give us spiritual training. Just as we build up the body on the outside with exercise, we must build up our spiritual body on the inside. And God has given us all the tools to do that through the Bible, prayer, faith, righteous living and the Holy Spirit within us. But just like physical training, we must be diligent in the application of these things God gives us. In 1Corinth 10:13 it tells us, No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. AND GOD IS FAITHFUL; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. Our problem is we never take that way out! We are always under attack by Satan and his demons. And sometimes he may not even be attacking us directly, but may be doing it by attacking people around us. I want to ask you right now to pray for my Family as Satan is attacking it right now and trying to break it up. Thank You! But we must remember! God has not promised to shield us from the troubles of this world. But He has promised to protect us in the midst of trouble. As long as we reach out for Him and take His Hand. But the one thing we as Christians have to remember the most is Christ's death and resurrection. Because it is there we find our greatest defence against Satan. And that is knowing that Jesus has already defeated Satan. He is a defeated foe. And some day the war will be over. But until then we must be prepared for battle. And we must remember that God is with us, For HE WILL NEVER LEAVE OR FORSAKE US! HABD!

I will be praying for you and your family Daniel. Sometimes it is easy for us to just really stress out as the results of things happening in our life. I am speaking for me that is. But the psalmist came to the conclusion that the Lord does care about us and what we are going through and our pain. And kNOw He will not leave or forsake us. So no matter what is going on in my life He is there. Plus, I look around and God has placed some pretty special people in my life to support me, especially my wonderful husband Mark. I know for me I have to remember to focus on those good things and thank Him for His care and His Love.
