The Gift of Each Other

My most recent revelation in my growth through the Holy Spirit is how quickly I am brought to a place of peace during struggle.  Something that Liz and I have learned over the years is that we are quick to call out the lies that Satan feeds us.  Our way of doing this is by talking to each other and saying what we are believing out loud.  This does a couple of things.  Speaking out the lies that Satan is feeding our minds with sheds light on the darkness.  Sometimes just repeating those things out loud makes us realize how ridiculous they are.  Other times we actually have to specifically pray for each other regarding the lie and then remind each other of what we know to be truth.  My relationship with Liz is invaluable for that reason.  She is my bringer/reminder of truth and I do the same for her.  As we have seen and felt the effects of this practice, we have gotten very quick to share with one another the moment we are feeling something is off.  This speed does not allow Satan to get a good hold on us.  I am thankful that God has given me this gift in my sister.  God is in, around, and through us for each of us.  I like that.
