So I was recently informed that I haven't written a blog in a long time, and so I feel that it is time to write another one. It also seems to help me process what all is going on in my life. Over the last 6 months maybe even going back a lil further than that it has been a rough road. Emotionally and spiritually I have struggled and often felt just completely drained. Part of it is going through a dry time in my life and part of it has been because I have pretty much refused to allow God into some parts of my life and allow Him to heal those parts. Recently, I have struggled to make God a priority in my life (this is often called sin) and I have felt super condemned and even really unable to be used. I see signs of God working in my life and through me but for some reason the joy of that I have allowed to be robbed from me. I love music and often a single song can really minister to me, if you read two blogs back it is about a song. But the song that really began to minister and speak to me last night is a song by Shane and Shane called Embracing Accusations. I will just give you the lyrics and then do a lil explaining afterwards.
Embracing Accusastions by Shane & Shane
The father or lies, coming to steal, kill, and destroy.
All my hopes of being good enough.
I hear him saying, cursed are the ones who can't abide.
he's right, Hallelujah he's right.
The devil is preaching, the song of the redeemed.
That I am cursed and gone astray I can not gain salvation.
Embracing accusastions.
Could the father of lies be telling the truth of God to me tonight?
If the penalty of sin is death, then death is mine.
I hear him saying, cursed are the ones who cant abide.
he's right, Hallelujah he's right.
The devil is preaching, the song of the redeemed.
That I am cursed and gone astray I can not gain salvation.
Oh the devil's singing over me an age old song,
that I am cursed and gone astray.
Singing the first verse so conviently over me
he's forgotten the refrain,
JESUS SAVES!!
He redeemed us from the curse of the law!!
So this is where I have been in a place where I have allowed the devil to sing a song over me but he has only sang part of it, as the song says "he's forgotten the refrain! JESUS SAVES!" I cant count the times in my life that I have allowed the joy of my salvation be robbed by the father of lies who tells me that I am not good enough, which is true, but I only listen to that and forget to listen to what Christ is singing over me. Christ is singing over me that He saves! So that's where I am today.
Blessings,
