Issues that don't seem to go away
I feel like the Devil has a hold on me and is drowning me
And no matter what I do I can't seem to find a way out
I feel like sometimes God isn't there at all
And then I remembered sometimes when it seems like God isn't there is when he is the closest to us just waiting for us to talk to him and I can't help but feel like God isn't here But I know in my heart he is right here if only I seek him
Things are happining in this world that we can't explain the Devil is trying his hardest to get to us christians
We must seek God and do it now before the Devil wins his fight
I know right now the Devil is trying to get to me and I almost let him win the fight but then I saw Gods light and heard him talking to me and it was like he picked me back up and told me next time to put my Amor on and thats what we all need to do I hope with you all reading this you will realize you aren't in this battle alone we all need to put our Amor on and stand up and fight the Good fight next to Jesus and do it for God I know the battle fields of my mind and you know yours so lets put our Amor on and go Beat the Devil with a Cross and the word of God for we can't let him win this fight so lets go on this battle field and show the Devil what we are made of "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son so that who so ever believth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life"(John 3:16) May God be with you all.
Dear Lord: I pray that you be with each and everyone of us in this spiritual battle I pray that you help us all win this fight against Satan and that each time we fall Lord we may never loose sight of you. Lord I am sorry for almost falling in Satan's path and I thank you Lord for showing me the way out and being with me Lord. I pray that you be The Salvation Army and help the church people see a glemps of you Lord they have not yet seen I pray it helps them grow closer to you Lord. In Jesus name AMEN
Author notes
I chose the light house background because God is our light house no matter how far out to sea we are if we feel like we can't find our way back God is their shining his light on us to show us the way back to him.

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: My Minds Own Battle Field
This piece tugged hard at my Spirit, I read Your words several times and wanted to toss this line for review: Things are happining- happening
Just a thought- re word: christians- Christians
and Love the reference to putting Amor on- now Amor meaning Love yes? for some reason I was thinking Armor- as in like a protective covering of sorts- 
I imagine there are others who could relate and have been there- still in battle
I'm Blessed You are here
Excellent Voice to Inspire
Powerful images You have brought forth
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love & light~ Desire~*~

Amen and bless your heart
Strength I read in this work and you have touched his hands and it has made you see life as we venture through this world and he looks through our eyes .We so now realize that the voice you heard that told you no dont go there dont do that was his all along . Hold him tight and know he leaves no one alone listen to his loving voice and save yourself from all the pain and sorrows this world so tries to lay upon his children . Love and be loved and life is good

Our MInd......
is a battlefield all in itself.The doubting, the fighting to do what's right as opposed to doing what we want to do in our flesh.That is where the wor comes in we must arm ourselves with it putting on the ful armour of God and aming ourselves to do battle with our mind, the devil and this world. Thanks for shairng this piece it provoked alot of though from me as you can see. !!!!~~Toni~~
