Hearing lies and bad thoughts from the enemy is a daily battle. To live in joy and peace is a challenge. How wonderful it is in those moments when the truth of God's love comes to us through a song, a word, a message, or a voice of a friend. It is way cool when the holy spirit speaks to us when we are in prayer. Sometimes it is right out frustrating when we hear nothing. It is then at those times notes to ourself from journal writing or the word of God sets us free. Our thoughts are the hardest thing to tackle in our daily walk with Christ. I am with you on this and I pray that the Holy Spirit just floods our minds with truth. Love you Lis Hey Kathy I agree it is a struggle to keep the noise out of our heads.

I am advocating doable resolutions this year (see mine at doableevangelism.com), but I like only having to remember one, so I might dump mine in favor of yours. I don't have so much trouble with the voices as I do with laziness and memory. Thanks for the great inspiration. I love the simplicity of narrowing down to one resolution that impacts a lot of life.

What I haven't given up is trying again. I think of it like the Magic Slate (see here: http://www.landofthelost.com/slate.htm ). I make an attempt, if it doesn't go right I just pick up the plastic and try again. Who's counting anyway? The important thing for me is to pick the right, reasonable goal (I've realized I can only do one at a time), and then just keep at it 'til I get there. No fair listening to devil voices during the process! No penalty for missing as long as I try again. So far, it works for me. You go girl - you can do it!
