This week I talk about the 4 battlefields we all struggle with
Some days it is totally obvious but other days it is subtle or not even noticeable. We are in a battle. It may not be one that we can see, but none-the-less, it is real.
- Emotional battles- dealing with love, pain, disappointment, and hurt feeling.
- Intellectual battles of the mind – our self talk, feeling loved, fears and most of all over thinking.
- Physical battles of what to eat, how to eat , pain in our body’s, cancer, other healthy issues.
- Spiritual battlefield. Ultimately this is an eternal life or death battle. Christians find their security in Christ; however, there is a real, day-to-day battle of flesh versus spirit which affects our peace of mind.
Half the battle is the awareness OF THE battle. This is not a “one and done” fight. It is an ongoing daily fight. We don’t get to “get it and set it”.
Become aware of the impact of the daily voices and the daily choices!
You are in a battle but you are not alone–
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”-Philippians 4:6-7
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.I do not give you as the world gives.Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27
