DID I TRULY UNDERSTAND?

Somewhere deep in my mind, I often know something, but forget to put what I know to practice. I allow the enemy to gain footholds in my life and allow chaotic-mess to dwell.  I did not understand that God gives us the power to defeat the enemy, so therefore I did not use the "Whole Armour" of God to defeat him.

A small number of things that I  knew and did not apply  to my life:

I felt that I did not fit in my husband's world, nor he in mine:
   I understand now that God has called me out of darkness into His marvelous light.

I did not need my husband to affirm who and what I am:
   I understand now that I am one of the chosen generations. . . A royal priesthood.

I allowed myself and my husband to believe that I could not make it without him:
   David said to the Lord, I have never seen the righteous forsaken nor his seed
   begging for bread. I have to keep my eyes centered on the Lord because all my    
   help cometh from the Lord who made heaven and earth.

         
I did not need my husband to tell me how beautiful and smart or wonderful I am, nor need him to make me feel that I am a woman.

   Well the Word says that I am fearfully and wonderfully made and that he knows what's best for me. My husband doesn't know and unless God tells me,
I don't even know.

"Did I TRULY UNDERSTAND?"

NO I DID NOT!

I lost sight of my relationship with God. I thank you Father God that it was not to late for me to get it right!
