Stand


"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand

Stand"

-Ephesians 6:10-14a

I have been so aware of a raging battle within my home this past week. It was a very, very rough week and looking pretty bleak for a day or two. It was to the point I didn't know what else I could do. All I could do was stand. I think we're finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

I can't express to you how dark it was. It was a perfect reminder that no matter how we may protect our loved ones, there is still an enemy out there fighting for their very souls.

I'm so thankful that I know that, "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world!" (1John 4:4)
