When you are down, the devil wants you to remember every foul, rotten, stinking thing that has ever happened to you and every shameful, detestable, despicable thing you have ever done. God wants you to remember him and sing praises to him in the midst of your miserable situation. Remember you are a new creature, old things have passed away. When King Saul was assaulted by an evil spirit, he took action. Saul called for David to come play his harp to soothe his troubled spirit(I Samuel 16) Whenever you feel your spirit starting to sink, you need to take action immediately. Don't wait. Remember the Lord and the good things he has done for you. It will boost your faith and lift your spirit. Lift your hands in praise and your voice in song. Satan cannot defeat a worshipper.
"Here is a song I love to listen to to lift my spirits"

Thank you for the encouragement!
I don't feel guilty about the things I did before I was a Christian... it's the things I continue to do or the sins I have committed since becoming one that get me down.
I should know better than to fall into sin at this point!
arrrgh
Hi Deniece! I was just letting you know that I am back in blogger land over at my old site.

Great to see you again!
I love that song you linked too. That's one of the songs I sometimes sing around the house.
You have such a lovely blog! I'm always glad when I stop by.
