God, thank you for these
dear reader friends. The lies are on shuffle in our minds. They come on, and we let
them run through our minds. They cripple us, reminding us of our past. They
taunt us, and distract us. We are struggling. We are spent. Please strengthen us
in this battle, to stop the shuffle by listening to truth. Remind us that our
battle is not with the people in our lives, or ourselves, but we are in a
spiritual war with spiritual beings and powers that we cannot see. You are
holding us close, the truth is right there before us and in us. Help us to
believe it, to resist how sweet the lies sound and trust the truth. We are
chosen. We are beautiful. We are filled with purpose. We are wanted. We are
Yours. We are capable. We are strong. We are brave. We can. We will. Our past
has no hold over us. Because of You. Because of You, the lies have no value,
they are worthless. Thank you for being our constant source of truth and loving
us through the process of leaving our water jars behind and for your overflowing
never ending truth. We love you.

"If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine!" Matthew 5:14 (MSG)
