union life

So when a thought comes and tempts me to be offended or unforgiving, that thought is from the enemy and a lie because; 

1] The Lord does not tempt me to be offended/unforgiving 

2] I know the enemy then cannot tell the truth

When I look deeper into the situation, I see the truth of the matter is actually the very opposite of what the enemy is saying! No matter how things appear, if the enemy is speaking to me, it’s a lie in some fashion. 

Your smile Like daylight dripping through the trees Like a wheat field in the breeze Like a sweet sweet melody that sets me free Your smile Right there with holidays and snowy nights And all the other simple joys of life That warm my heart And make it all worth while

But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength;

Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For You have been my stronghold

And a refuge in the day of my distress.

You carry every burden; you always remind me to cast my cares on You

Your peace answers every uncertainty

Your Word is Life to my flesh

There is no shadow of turning with You,

I rest in the Truth, You love me so much

I’m convinced of Your power and authority

I’m assured of Your presence (You never leave me or forsake me)

You’re here and now; I’m in YOUR here and now

all this time

that you are were close

and always mine

present to know

present to hear

offering love

displacing fear

always right now

always so near

your word in my heart

your voice in my ear

this is the place

where joy is found

this is the presence

where love abounds

deep in my heart

deep your gaze

I am enraptured
