Black

Long-time friends of the Pilgrim might recall this post from the "dark ages". This dreaded guest, clothed in black, came knocking again this weekend and especially this morning, causing me to recall this post. Through the support of David, Kathy, Bob, Paul, Elizabeth and the Holy Spirit, I was able to right my ship before it hit the rocks. THANKS.

Here's that post:

Lately another guest, or maybe I should call him a predator has been lingering around my "house". The dreaded "D" word...depression... has been lurking. Many of you, no doubt, have had to deal with this unwelcome visitor.

Back in January I penned a brief "post" entitled Dark Night of the Soul. In the midst of our darkness may we experience His deliverance, His delight, His divine presence.

Dark Night of the Soul

Fear
Pain
Panic
Terror
Shaking
Hot Sweats
Desperation
Cold Sweats
Apprehension
Introspection
Uncertainty
Trembling
Heartache
Insomnia
Anxiety
Horror
Dread
Guilt

"The peace of God which passes all understanding shall GUARD and GARRISON your hearts, through Christ Jesus our Lord." - Philippians 4:7

  1. If U wern't a threat to the devil , his armpit of a kingdom, then there would be no predator, slithering in to turn U from the Light and keep U from witnesing to the Saving Grace of Jesus Christ
    BUT - U are a threat to him -- so he attacks , this warfare is as old as Eve, "go ahead Eve" doubt God -- but The Lamb that was Slain , is ALIVE and WELL - his angels ministering to the "heirs" of Salvation --- those "bouts" brother David , show that your advancing on his territory and the BATTLE IS YOURS ------- continuing to pray for U and others as well as U all praying for me and mine - much thanks , In HIS NAME --
