It's not You; it's me.

I'm feeling weird lately. It's a worn down, yet persevering feeling. Praise Him because without the Holy Spirit I don't think I could get anything accomplished or stay on the right track. It's weird how evil tries all these ways to sneak under my skin. I see it, though. The conviction God sets on my heart allows me to see and understand temptation even when it is happening. It provides clear opportunity (and causes me) to turn the other way.  But sometimes, it's hard to run. Sometimes I walk, slowly. It sucks when you understand that you're being tempted. It's such a strange thing. There is no way to fully describe it, but I don't like it. I'm thankful, though, for the Spirit's guidance and strength to overcome.

I'm over this. Today I will survive in victory over these temptations and subsequent sins and subsequent death, because He overwhelms all blemishes with strength and grace.
