Battles

I found this verse today and it gives me so much encouragement...."The battle is the Lords" 1 Samuel 17:47. We try so hard sometimes to try and fight our battles our self. But we can't do it. I know...for a loooong time I tried to fight on my own. We become tired and worn out trying to do everything our self. All our battles our the Lord's. If we look at them that way, they will be so much easier because the Lord Almighty is fighting in us and for us! This was from the story of David and Goliath. I read the whole thing, it was the first time I really read it. It really is amazing. I mean David defeated Goliath. A mighty warrior with all kind of armor on. He defeated him with no kind of armor on. Only with a slingshot and rocks, and God! I mean how amazing is that? He handed the battle over to God. He had faith that God would win and He did! God always wins. He can't be defeated. The ultimate battle has already been won, these tiny battles are nothing for our Lord!

Today has been pretty good. I'm feeling fat today. I don't know what it is, but I've been having a lot of fat days lately. It's been VERY hard but I've tried to give each battle to God and He's won each one so far. I'm still doing good...but I'm still waiting to have a bad day. I guess I shouldn't look for the bad days, but I just feel like when I have a lot of good days it won't be long before I fall into some bad days...
