Yesterday, I spent over four hours listening to worship music and watching worship videos while doing my nails. During this time, I was giving thanks to the Lord for all He has done for me, asking for forgiveness, and engaging in other acts of worship.
Suddenly, my phone started dinging with unexpected messages that were out of my control. It was disheartening because I thought I was having a good conversation with someone who seemed to have grown. But in an instant, things were thrown in my face that had nothing to do with our conversation.
I realized that the devil was trying to pull me away from the Lord and provoke anger in me. As someone with anxiety who recently stopped taking medication with the Lord’s help, I knew I couldn’t let the devil win this battle.
I surrendered it all to God, trusting that He will fight my battles. I am determined to live my life free from pain, anxiety, hurt, and self-doubt because I know I am worthy.
