Promise


 

A Promise is only as good as the keeper

Speak O promise keeper

Light my Way

I will follow the sound of hope

Whispers of love

Remind me of the connection

You to me

I am never alone

Cannot stray too far

Love holds me

Hope calls

My heart hears

My spirit tunes its ear

Speak your promises

Lights strung along the path

And I am walking with you

Unafraid – I am trusting

Confident – I am loved

Shinning bright O Path of Promise

I am on my Way!

What is a faith-filled response to these enemies of faith? Ephesians 6 talks about the armor of God and the fiery arrows of the enemy. Faith is the shield we hold up that, according to Paul, extinguishes all the  flaming arrows of the evil one.   (Ephesians 6:16)   I’ve been pondering how exactly that works. If faith is a shield, it stands between you and the enemy’s attack. The arrows shot by the enemy are intended to hit us! Jesus said in John 10:10 that the enemy comes to rob, kill and destroy .
