Targeted For Being a Christian
The day I gave my soul to the Lord
was the best decision I have ever made
A decision that determines where I spend eternal life
A decision that I am very proud about making
A decision where I began to become a target
I started to go against people who I thought were my friends
I started to wrestle with things I never wrestled with
I started to slowly go back into the world
I started to realize that I need more of God
I started to realize that I can’t go through this battle without his Holy Spirit
April 11, 2015 that was the day I was filled with his Holy Spirit
After that day I started to become an even bigger target
When I truly started to get closer to God
It felt like I was having boulders thrown at me
I started to deal with suicidal thoughts
I was constantly being tormented at night
I had no peace when I slept at night
I would think it was just because people don’t like me
But, God and my family helped me realize it is a spiritual battle
Everything I feel from people it is a spiritual thing
That person is just being used by a spirit
When I started to realize that I started praying against those evil spirits
I started to write prayers everyday to God
And that gave me strength
It is like I can tell him everything I am dealing with in my life
even though he already knows
Targeted for being a Christian is the lifestyle
I chose when I gave my life to Christ
Targeted for being a Christian
is going to happen as I continue to stand for Christ
