I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one can snatch them away from me, for my Father has given them to me, and he is more powerful than anyone else. No one can snatch them from the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.”
John 10:28-30
This has been a rough week. Ever had one of those? One of those weeks where you just can't seem to get anything right? When these times come around, I have the tendency to come down hard on myself. I will doubt myself. I will berate myself. I will also tend to not like myself.
But it is in these times that God will allow me a short pity party and then He will remind me to change my perspective. He will remind me that I am His and nothing....absolutely NOTHING can change that. He will remind me that Christ came to this earth, giving up everything He had in Heaven, just so He could love me, understand me and save me. I will be reminded that my Abba holds me in His hand and protects me and loves me. I will be reminded that there is NOTHING that can ever separate us from the love of Christ.
He will remind me that the negativity is from the Pit Dweller and to let it go. He will remind me that the Pit Dweller has no power over me because Christ died for me. He will remind me that as a child of the King of Kings, I should hold my head up and remember just whose I am. And when I look at my life from that perspective...I'm not drenched, I feel the rain and welcome it!
