Monster

5/19/2020
Romans 8:35 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?”

I had another rough day today. I am blessed to have people in my life who love me and try to understand what I am going through. You know who you are. OCD is often times such a big bad monster and, as my husband puts it, Covid-19 is the perfect storm to release that monster. He also reminds me, when my mind is raging, that Jesus is my Anchor and He will calm the storm. I am so grateful to have such a faithful man in my life. I actually have two, as my son is also a faithful man of God, and has become one of my valued and trusted allies in the fight.

Additionally, I had a dear friend contact me several times today after finding out I was struggling, and I am so grateful for her as well. Then my sister, when I shared with her how I was doing, said she was going to pray for the monster to go away 3x (it is our way). God showed Himself to me through these dear ones today, and I felt His love through their encouragement and kindness. I am blessed.

Chambers says, “We are ‘more than conquerors in all these things.’ Paul is not talking of imaginary things, but of things that are desperately actual; and he says we are super-victors in the midst of them, not by our ingenuity, or by our courage, or by anything other than the fact that not one of them affects our relationship to God in Jesus Christ.” Amen and Hallelujah!

The love of my Jesus conquers all! He is my Anchor in the storm, and not even the monster can separate me from Him.
