Fishing for faith

When problems arise, we can’t solve them with fear when things are out of your control. Human reaction is panic naturally, which is not a solution and a waste of energy that you could have held onto. Though we sometimes choose rather to suffer. Thats because at some point or another a spirit who oppressed you sought to make you feel you deserve to live with its word, and not your own. Those are not your thoughts, they were made to make you think they are yours, but they are not. But in a time of weakness and unknown, your faith slipped, and with the spirit of fear, you cast out a line to bring insanity near. So instead of reeling in faith to apply towards the issues that arise. You turn to anxiety, panic, and a heightened, frightened state of mind. We must watch how we fish metaphorically, or we will end up catching real-time spirits with fear, filled with Insanity. Those don’t make you feel full of love and peace. They do the opposite. They wreak havoc within your system of belief. Causing ripple like reactions to outpour into your life. These are not the spirits of Christ. They are deceitful with lies in your own voice. With your mind. They are black as night. Holding onto such darkness will never allow his light. Let those thoughts and feelings go. They are only here because you allowed them to grow. You are in charge of what you let in. Make sure you ask yourself, is this in his name or a sin I have proclaimed. Am I doing his bidding or am I still letting dark spirits control me and how I should be living. I let them go. They are not welcome here unless I invite them here. But I no longer invite such darkness to appear.
