Good Morning,
I have been angry for most of my life, a family trait which I have focused and funneled into the activities I do. Many have marveled over how much work I can accomplish, but few understood where the energy came from.
Over the last few months I have found that I have a growing inner peace. This growing inner peace has increased with the amount of prayers I do every day, and the amount of Bible and Christian readings I do daily as well as listening to Christian music and sermons.
This morning, I was not feeling well and struggled to do my morning Bible readings.
When we are down, it is often harder to fight off the temptations which seem to never be too far away from us.
The temptations lost out, as the songs in my head are from my new favorite Radio station, KLOVE.
I could not get the name Jeremy Camp out of my head, and as I sat in front of the computer with my Google Home Page up, I sat for a few seconds wondering what to type into the search engine.
So, I put in ‘Jeremy Camp’ and have been listening to his songs for the last hour, and while waves of love and happiness swept over me and my tear-filled eyes, I knew I did the right thing. And I know something going on my Christmas list, Jeremy Camp CD’s!
My growing in the Lord, in understanding His Word and reading Systematic Theology, and listening to sermons and the Christian Music, have helped give me an inner happiness which has helped me face up to the dark times of my past and replacing anger and temptation with love.
Lord I thank you for Your Grace and Love because I am knowing more and more Joy every day.
