Today, I realized that all good and perfect things come from God; our God is not a god of confusion, but of love, insight, and truth. Truth isn't confusing, its merely informative. We can choose to ignore it or abide by it. There are consequences for these actions.
Satan confuses people. He hates it when we love God. He hates it when we choose truth; he tries to find ways to confuse us, finds ways to get us sidetracked, frustrated, or guilty. Satan tries to find ways to make us forget who we are and what we're made for.
I know now today that when I'm following God, I should be flattered when I'm being attacked by satan; it means I'm a threat to the kingdom of evil.
I love the idea that I'm being attacked now for a good reason; now I can ask God to help me fight, to strengthen me, and to give me grace to fight.
God,
Increase my faith. Help me to love. Use me to bring You glory. Help me become a better image of You.
I love you, Lord.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
Love,
-Josh
