Worth Fighting For!

This life is full of so much.  So much of it is wonderful and good.  But there is an awful lot of it that is not so pretty, that is full of hurt and darkness too.  There is a lot of evil in this world, and there is an orchestrator of all things evil.  He has come to steal, kill and destroy as it says in John 10:10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Satan wants to steal your children, soul and joy, kill your salvation, and destroy your marriage.  But Jesus came to give, bring life, and restore!  Obviously, there are things to fight for and those to ignore… and while as a mom I am constantly learning to pick my battles carefully; I have found that there are certain things that are ALWAYS worth fighting for!  Here are some of the ones that have been on my heart heavily for some time now.  These seem to be heavier than ever recently, and whether it is personally, or for a friend or family member… I would ask you to join me in this battle against the evil one in these:
