greater is He...

[you are from God, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. -1 John 4:4]

a few days ago....I'd kinda forgotten the "greater is He..." part. I felt so burdened. So run down. So tired...sick. and worst of all... apathetic. I felt like I was drowning in emotions that were coming out of no where. Lost. Flailing in sorrow.

I hated it.

BUT! The mere whisper of His name causes His heart to beat faster and a beaming smile to spread across His face. "Jesus..."

"Jesus, come and save me...help me. Hold me and don't let me go. Be the air I breathe. I want to be obsessed. Cast fear far from me. Fill me with love..."

He is faithful. And oh, so beautiful. I praise Him for new life, poured like fire into my spirit. I praise Him for daily strength and grace. I praise Him for peace in the midst of raging doubts and spiteful lies from Satan. Jesus is there, instantly. And I have to wonder......why do I wait SO long to ask Him to come? Do I think I can make it on my own?? Haven't I learned by now that that would be absolutely ridiculous and utterly impossible?  Sometimes I'm just so....

human.
grr.

We are victorious in HIM!! Thank You, Jesus.

Today was beautiful.

Lots of work. Tan time. Dirty chai frapp from the V coffee shop. Quality time with my bestie.  More work.  A totally amazing outing with my kitchen fam. Bubble Tea.
