Would you like to know where Satan has been at attack in my head? Simply read the headlines in the financial news.
I have been reading, writing, and learning for months that I am a sojourner on this planet, I am a child of God. The Bible is completely packed with wonderful promises for the elect of God.
I believe them...I really do.
But do I?
Every single day, it seems, some major calamity occurs in the markets and my portfolio is getting whacked in a major way!
I am ashamed to admit that this causes me anxiety. I am not yet where God would have me be in this regard. I, evidently, still claim ownership and have not yet completely yielded myself to the sovereignty of God. The battle of the flesh continues on.
Dear Abba,
Please forgive me and help me in my unbelief. Protect me from the assaults of the evil one. Holy Spirit, so fill me that there is no room for the evil one's darts to penetrate. All of this is nothing, in light of eternity. I believe that. But Father, it is hard for me to see from my vantage point. Let me hang, holy Father, from thy hand and not this silly downward arrow.
Your son, David
