The Lord has always been good to me. He promised to never leave me or forsake me. He has proven this to me over and over again. It’s Him and me together.

Let’s face it: life happens, if you know what I mean. Satan wants to distract me and blur, or even avert, my focus away from Jesus. But Jesus has His plan for me to focus on Him and not look to the left or to the right because His way is perfect and especially made for me. All I have to do is to hold onto His right hand.

I had a situation come up that had the potential to be stressful for me. I had to keep my focus on Jesus. Again, it’s Him and me. In one of Pastor Brenda’s sermons, Friendly Fire & Collateral Damage, she talked about how it’s not “flesh and blood” that we fight, but it’s a “spiritual battle.” I recognized this. I released this situation to Jesus because I’m His child. He is with me, for me, and fights my battles. Needless to say, Jesus brought me through this potentially stressful situation in victory because He’s my Way-maker and Strong Tower to whom I run. The victory is His! I give Him all the praise!

Thank you, Lord!
