Mindful makes thankful.

Our God is a jealous God.

Despite his great wisdom, Solomon and his wives lost everything including his loyalty and faithfulness:

I will do this because they have forsaken me and worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not walked in obedience to me, nor done what is right in my eyes, nor kept my decrees and laws as David, Solomon’s father, did.”

‭‭1 Kings‬ ‭11‬:‭33‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Never say never.

The enemy is insidious, always seeking ways to tear down our faith.

We say we will never abandon our love for and loyalty to God but suddenly it happens.

Our faith is constantly tested and passing each test is, while we occupy this earth, what life is all about.

Never forget where God has brought you and what he has brought you out of.

Mine was addiction.

Though it’s been almost 13 years clean and sober, I’m still an addict, still the sinner saved by grace, still with reminders all around me every day.

Being always mindful and thankful is your best defense against the enemy.
