today my mom called me a rock (stone? it was in korean),
and it really hurt.
the tongue has the power to kill and destroy.
who knew it'd be so easy to kill those we love the most.
but Jesus is the life that lives in me.
Jesus is God's testimony living in me.
words have a lot of effect on me.
one word. two words. many words. no words.
especially having a boss and all,
i'm realizing the power of your tongue.
we misuse our tongues so much.
we give too much joy to the devil with our tongues.
doesn't that make you angry?
he can never say "i love you" to God.
he can never say "i've been forgiven" to God.
yet we can make satan happy with our tongues.
because we're so freaken stupid and careless.
mindless. thoughtless. slow in all the wise things. quick in all the wrong.
you're damned, satan.
i hate you so much. i'm so glad to spend eternity where you will not.
i understand you're scared.
actually, i don't. don't know what that feels like. because this perfect love i have casts out all possible fear.
i understand you're jealous. because God is so jealous for my love and for the love of those who don't even know God or how much God loves them. but you. who are you? get out of the way.
you are jealous for the dust of my feet. but i strike you all day with my heel.
today could have been a bad day. it was a hard day compared to others.
but when i think about you, satan, my day just got victorious because i'm so thankful that i'm not you or associated with you in any way. Praise the Lord!!!!!!
thank you for reminding me that i'm untouchable.
thank you for reminding me that i'm a citizen of Heaven, royalty belonging to God Most High.
thank you for reminding me that you're so scared. and so weak. that you know only how to steal, kill, and destroy. it's getting old.
but God. He can only make all things new. new every morning. and He gives me life. not only now but for eternity. and abundantly so. dang. God is so GOOD.
so yea. i was about to cuss you out but i realize i can't because i can only pity you and thank you for helping me realize how pitiful you are.
instead, i can only give praise to God and thank Him for my tongue. that despite how dirty it is, He still loves me because i am His daughter. i belong to Him. forever. because i believe in Jesus.
man. i love You, God.
i'm so thankful that i can tell you that i love You.
i'm so glad that i am able to love You even though i fail at it in many ways.
but Your Love for me is so unfailing, that there is no room for my failures.
You Love covers them all.
Hallelujah.
I LOVE YOU, LORD. MY FATHER.
Thank You, JESUS.
in JESUS'S Name.
Amen.
