Sometimes with my spirit,
I use to wrestle with . . .
I’d toss and I’d turn over
whether God was just a myth.
I tussled with the thoughts,
of God’s mercy and His grace
I contended with the fact
that I’d ever see His face.
Sometimes with my heart,
I’d have a great debate
over whether heaven
would be my eternal fate.
I mulled around in my mind,
if Jesus died for me
and whether from my sins
I’d ever really be set free.
I use to wrestle with,
the very enemy of my soul . . .
but, now to his attacks I’m aware
and refuse to give him control!

“Be sober, be vigilant;
because your adversary the devil,
as a roaring lion, walketh about,
seeking whom he may devour:”
