A friend of mine that I train at the gym, told me about this vision she had of a big heart with arrows going through it and pointing out, (as you usually see them). They were pointing out at all these concerns we have. Thoughts and worries that weaken us and can tear us apart: sickness, bills, being unimportant, being alone, divorce, why don’t they love me, I’m not good enough, not pretty enough, I can’t lose the weight…
That is exactly what 1 Peter 5:8 says the devil does; but the verses 6-7 before that tells us what to do; Cast our cares and anxieties under Gods mighty hand. Romans 12:2 tells us to be transformed in our thinking. So then we need to point those arrows inward where Jesus wants to be. The bible tells us, “In Christ,” we are more than conquerors. We will have troubles in this world, 1 John 16:33, but Jesus promises He will never leave us, Hebrews 13:5, The troubles of this world can tear us apart. So rise your thoughts above those things that steal your joy, to who Jesus is wanting to be, “In you." Ephesians 6:10, Be strong in the lord and the power of His might. He is more that a match for Satan.
I hope and pray you find peace of mind in His Name, “Jesus.”
Grace and peace to you
