The more he attacks

The more I resist

As Satan goes down

His "Do Disturb" list

I must make a difference

He won't leave me alone

With knocking at my door

With ringing up my phone

I can only conclude

I must be impacting lives

Or He wouldn't attack me

Through these terrible lies

God knows my heart

And all I've been through

His love for me

Is always true blue.

Hedge of thorns around me

Protect me it's true

Spiritual warfare

Will always ensue

When you make a stand

About your beliefs

Satan discredits you

To limit your reach.

Boldly goes those

Who see through his lies

Who stand firm with God

No matter how Satan tries.

My faith is strong

And deep in the Lord

Taking merit in lies

Is nothing I can afford.

My savior is Jesus

And he knows my heart

Nothing on earth

Can tear that apart

He forgave me in love

For the sins I confessed

He'll never forsake me

With his love I am blessed

You know, God is never mocked, and he doesn't like his children being trampled on . . . keep making that difference . . . HE has it all under control.

I really enjoyed this. Somehow, I haven't seen you much on gather, and I know you are always around. I am glad you stopped by to comment today. It brought me here to this, and it is lovely.
