My Morning Meditation...HOLD YOUR GROUND


During times of testing, 
pray and hold your ground.



James 1:12:

God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. 
Afterward they will receive the crown of life 
that God has promised to those who love him. 

Star's Interpretation:  You will be tested.  Folk will "try"  you for their own purposes.  It is a testament to YOUR character how you handle the test.  Don't be used to further someone else's agenda...especially when that agenda is not meant for good.  Quit thinking that you must halt before the barrier of someone else's negativity. You need not. You can crash through and destroy it by not buying into it.  I used to allow negativity to hurt me,  but I've survived by ignoring it: it dims your light and it's harder each time to turn the power up again.  That's my gift. I let negativity roll off me like water off a duck's back. If it's not positive, I didn't hear it.

  2. I'm dealing with this right now. I made the mistake in the past of fighting against the people and things that were fighting against me..not realizing that the fight gives those things MORE power. So now when I'm being tested and tried, I remind myself not to fight in the flesh. I pray and hold my ground.
