Ode To The Ex Oh you special little snowflake please!  Do you really think I have time for that? I'm living life in the fast lane, and nothing you say can change the facts! I stand for something, so falling for stupid little schemes is just not part of the deal. You may have had me wrapped around your finger once up on a time, But nothing you say can draw me back to such an empty life, it's a trap! There's a way out, I found it, but it cost me all I had. To turn my back on that would just be super sad. So let's just not shall we? Do your thing, but count me out. I have no need for your secrets, I have enough of my own. I can't be bought, I'm already owned. My boss is hidden in plain sight. I was born to be a light.  I know your petty enough to take my rejection as an invitation to start a war, but you see I'm on the winning side.  So bring it on babe, don't you know I don't scare easily. Don't you dare take that as permission! I know who I am and...

 Apostate. Now here comes the most tragic story,  I knew the one shining in glory. I've felt the warmth of love like no other.  I remember the day I got pulled from the gutter.  I stood up, with the help of my Lord. But let's be real, then I got broken, then I got board. I thought, rapture was imminent years ago. Thirty years later and I'm still waiting for the start of the show! Money answers all things,  But, each time I lead a sheep a stray my soul stings! I understand how Judas must have felt, and now I'm awaiting a burning punishment for pain that I've dealt.  But mercy is everlasting and I'm still here.  Maybe grace really is a licence to sin, maybe I'm fine. So, go on then dark one, for a billion bucks more I will take a sip of your wine.  And yet.. Despite all that has been going on,  If I'm feeling this convicted, can I really be too far gone?

How To Leave A Secret Society And Not Die (How I Got Trapped) They trapped me, or maybe or perhaps it was my ignorant bliss. I thought they loved, I thought they cared, But really they lied, they emptied me wallet and soul. I was so broken, Thinking there was  no way out.  I thought I was desperate at the beginning. When death signed the marriage certificate.  But oh what bliss to struggle in freedom! The day they gave me everything,  I thought I won, but really I lost.

The next tool the devil likes to use to distract us from moving forward in life is the hammer of fear.  Fear can come in many different forms.  It can come in the obvious form of worry, anxiety, paranoia or even the not so obvious little worries we get about the smaller things. I'm not going to say too much about this one because if I got into this topic to deeply, I don't think I would know where to stop, so rather then going into detail about how fear works and what we can do about it. I'm just going to state the 3 main lessons I have learnt about fear and then give a source list so that if you want to do further study you are aware of some of the resources available. Please note these lessons are about fear in a negative sense. I know that fear can still be good and even protect us sometimes, but I am talking about the unhelpful side of fear in these lessons.  Lesson 1 - If you give fear space to grow it will. Fear usually starts out as a thought in your head, the more...

It may seem strange that I'm starting this series by talking about acceptance as a tool used in the devil's toolbox but it does have a good reason for being the first topic looked at in this teaching.  Accepting things, in general, is not a bad thing, in fact, it is important to accept certain things in order to move forward in personal growth and there are things the devil will try to stop us from accepting.  However, there are things that if we accept too easily, they will actually stunt our personal growth. We are going to look at 2 of those things that can cause us to stay stuck by accepting them. In order to explain this, I'm going to start out by looking at it from the viewpoint of the thoughts attached to each of these things, then explain why and how it is dangerous to think this way and how to move from a negative viewpoint to a positive. What is important to remember is that the devil is a liar and so each of these thoughts is a lie. Let's now look at the evid...
