The day I locked eyes with the Devil

Recently I've been reminded, multiple times, of an experience I had as a young woman in spiritual warfare.
Until this experience, I had a biblical understanding of hell and the devil. After this experience I had an all new view of it. One I'll never forget.

In my late teens/early twenties I volunteered at an inner city church with the youth group. One night after our gathering the youth leader and I were sitting out in her car talking. While we were talking a couple of guys walked past the car. One of the men glanced over at the car and his eyes were pure white. He had no pupils or anything, and in that instant there was a war.
There was a war between worlds between our eyes and his, between his body and mine, between his god and my God.
It felt as though I was suffocating. Tears came to my eyes.
After he passed by and the battle going on ceased we prayed. We prayed hard. We called to God and He came down and gave us peace because no matter how difficult the battle is, or will be, my God will always have the victory!

This stuff is real! It's not something to play around with!

I've been contemplating sharing this story and tonight saw a video about this very thing. About a man who was a messenger and advocate for the devil. And he was released from that bondage because of Jesus. And I knew it was time to share.

This is the link to the video. https://youtu.be/6l7A4cQHxuY
His story goes to about minute 13. But it's real and it is powerful!

Don't get sucked in to the life of sorcery and satanic rituals. God is the God of love and the God that will win in the end. Jesus loves you more than you can even fathom! He doesn't want you to fight a spiritual battle. He wants you to surrender yourself and trust Him.

I don't know who this is for, but I'm praying for you! And I love you with a Christ-like love.

I won yesterday.

Yesterday morning I planned to clean the house and get stuff organized because I had people coming over yesterday evening. As soon as I started to get things ready to clean my 2 year old started throwing a fit. Normally I get really irritated and just tell him to knock it off and keep doing what I had planned. But yesterday I didn't. I didn't get mad. I didn't yell. I didn't do what I would normally do. Yesterday I put on one of his favorite movies, sat down, and rocked him. He ended up going to sleep. Then while I was doing dishes he woke up very upset. Again, normally I would be really annoyed, but I sat with him and he calmed down. We sat in the chair together for a while and then he was up and ready to play. But I won yesterday. I won against my anger. I won against the way I usually react. These moments with my children are ones I will never get back. I really need to focus on that instead of the irritants that present themselves. It may be only on

Depression + Guilt

Can I just say.. Again.. Depression SUCKS! There doesn't have to be a reason why I feel like I'm worthless.. I just do. I'm also a Christian. I try to read my Bible. I pray often. I go to church on Sunday. And I really try to be a good Christ follower. But being a Christ follower and battling depression day in and day out is hard. Because I know in my heart that I'm so very valuable because God created me and loves me unconditionally. But my head just doesn't hold on to that all the time. And then I feel guilty because I don't have that joy and happiness the Bible speaks of. I feel guilty because I'm not the person I'd like to be. I'm not the great Christian woman (parent especially) that I long to be. And that guilt can be so very overwhelming. I constantly feel like I'm failing at everything. Recently, during a discussion with someone I brought up something that is in the Bible. The person asked me to stop bringing up the Bible becaus

First Blog!

Good morning all! I'm very excited to begin this new journey of blogging!  God has called me to share my life with others so He may be glorified and people may be helped through their struggles.  We weren't created to go through life alone. And thankfully we aren't alone! Many times in life we feel like we have no where to turn and no one we can count on. (That includes me) But through fellowship and leaning on God's loving arms, we can make it through this life. Together. So, here is a small introduction to me: I am a wife, to a wonderful husband. I am a mother to two awesome little boys and a beautiful step-daughter. I grew up as a preacher's kid along with my 2 sisters and 1 brother. I've had to fight for my relationship with God, and find Him on my own. I am a survivor of abuse (NOT by my husband). I am a mother of multiple children I never got to see or hold (miscarriages). I have fought with depression and anger since I was a kid and continue
