i think i'm starting to get a little too comfortable with being comfortable. don't get me wrong, i'm SO thankful for times like these when i can say that things are pretty placid and easygoing. we definitely shouldn't discount moments of peace. one of the girls i've been doing my bible reading accountability with made a good point about spiritual highs. she confessed that through her fire for God she realized after some time how conceited she became. she felt like she was on top of the world and that nothing could bring her down from this feeling. but when we're at our highest, we run the risk of getting carried away in our "happiness" and it's the perfect opportunity for Satan to creep back in and slowly break you down, one bad day at a time.
instead of riding on this feeling of "everything's all gravy right now" i sense the urgency to stay proactive in not only continuing to seek Christ but keep my heart guarded more than ever (
Proverbs 4:23). the more i equip myself with the ARMOR OF GOD, the harder it will be for Satan to break me (
Ephesians 6:13).
i'm preparing myself to be rocked by the Word and my faith reaffirmed at the retreat tomorrow. what i really desire and pray for is that God would meet with each and every one of us and stir within us so that we would come to desire Him more.
