My wrists began developing abnormally 4 years ago. This has resulted in me being unable to play music the way I would like to. These past few days have been VERY bad! I haven't picked up a guitar in a week. But I'm called to be a musician!
The enemy has been putting terrible thoughts in my mind. Thoughts like, "You will never play the violin again." and "How do you expect to play music with such terrible pains in your wrists?" and "Give up. Give up."
None of these thoughts are true...After all the enemy is also known as the father of lies. But my God is the God of truth and I am standing on his mountain. I will play music! I can't play guitar right now so I'll play piano! If my wrists give me too much trouble to play piano, then I will sing!
Here is what I have been saying to myself for the past few days and I want to say it to you, because we all struggle with the enemy.
"When the devil shouts "No!" you must shout "Yes!" twice as loud."
And please remember this...When the devil begins to pull you away from your hopes and dreams it's only because he knows that you can reach them.

You told me that once, I liked the way it fit in my ears. And the way its logic fits in my head. And the way its message fits in my heart.
I have a short list of quotes I keep, maybe i'll make a blog about em???? :)
But anyway, thanks for the quote.
