All day on Saturday I fought thoughts in my head. From not needing Real Solutions any more to know one wanting me to be there any more. The list goes on and on. But instead of listening to the lies I held onto the Truth. The truth is I need it. I know I need it. I know the Truth is God wants me there. I was blessed by what Real and Reals Mom had to say.
I wanted to share this with everyone because if Satan is working that hard to convince you not to do something then chances are God wants you to do it!
Don't listen to the negative thoughts. Negative thoughts are not from God.
I know I am not alone in the battle of the mind. I know that everyone of us deals with this on a daily basis. God loves you He wants to help you.
God is NOT a negative thought.
Love You All

Sylvia, I try to keep these verse in mind each day. Sometimes I will forget until HE reminds me.

16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

What you chose to do was this: Eph. 4:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Satan throws those little darts (thoughts) at us to try to focus on other things. For example, I had worked on my program during the week but still wasn't satisfied. But I went with it anyway. My mom was there and I caught her off guard in asking her to explain her side in dealing with me as one who suffered from addiction. She did well. I love her.


I just allowed the Holy Spirit to have His way and He did. I too was blessed by it as well. We are fighting together sis. One Day At A Time.
Thanks for sharing as you always have meaningful things to say.

I remember the day you came here and have seen such growth and change. I commend you and give God all the Glory.
Luv Ya, Real
