3 The enemy pursues me,
he crushes me to the ground;
he makes me dwell in the darkness
like those long dead.
4 So my spirit grows faint within me;
my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of long ago;
I meditate on all your works
and consider what your hands have done. Psalm 143:3-5
Do you ever get dismayed? Is your courage beaten and battered, so you feel like cowering in a corner? The enemy attacks us from multiple angles and one is when we question our own courage. He will see that crack in our thoughts and try to sneak in which can cause great pain and doubt. We need to remember those cracks of dismay can be filled with something much better, and that is our Lord and Savior. If we turn to strengthen our spirit by ignoring the doubt of the enemy, then we can more clearly see the differences and changes in our life due to God. Don't let your spirit grow faint, but place things and people in your life that make a difference in your feelings in a positive way. Friends become family and family helps with our dismay as well. Don't fill the cracks with the dismay of the enemy, fill it with only the Good of God.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
