Why am I so drawn to fiction? I love historical fiction! It is my favorite genre to read. The more historical the better. I am drawn to the way the characters in this book are so fearless. They know how to use weapons. They don't shy away from a battle. They are resourceful when cornered. They are chivalrous. I could go on and on....
It's interesting that these are also the things I long for in my spiritual life. I want to walk through this world fearless, confident in my faith and in my God. I want to know and use the weapons that God has provided me... to be knowledgeable in the Word of God, to be in such close communion with my God that I can walk through this world confidently and securely.
These are the things I want to remember:
2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me."
James 4:7 ( this verse makes me think Jedi, but that's another post)
"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
Exodus 20:2
"I am the LORD your God"
