A letter to Satan

Dear (not so dear) Satan,


Why are you so obsessed with me lately? Seriously, do you not have anything better to do? The past few days, you have been pounding me with temptations that you know I will fall into and feeding me lies that I should know aren't true. I'm not good enough. I deserve to be hurt. I'm not worthy. You're a disappointment to everyone. You'll never live up to the expectations of your loved ones. God doesn't even think you deserve anything He's blessed you with.You're a terrible friend; you don't deserve the You're not a good girlfriend. You're a horrible person in general. You deserve to be lonely your whole life. You sin constantly and God won't forgive you for all the things you've done wrong. There's too many to count and you are just a screw up.


Well, Satan, I'm here to tell you, BACK OFF. I'm a God-fearin', faithful servant of the Almighty. He told me He will never leave me. He told me I'm beautiful beyond all compare, so much so He is enthralled. (Psalm 45:11) He says I am more than my mistakes, failures and disappointments. I am strong through Him. I am strong enough to not believe the lies you tell me. God loves me unconditionally. I am good enough for Him. I'm worth it. Even when I do mess up and screw everything up, He still loves me just the same and fully forgives me. (2 Corinthians 5:18-19)There is NO sin I've committed that God's grace cannot cover. (2 Corinthians 12:9) NONE. God gave me a new life. I am His daughter and He is my father. (John 17:23) We have a relationship like no other, and nobody, not even you Satan, can come between us. (Romans 8:38-39) Though you come really close sometimes to fooling me into believing those lies, I never will. I know who I am. I am His. And that's way more than I'll ever be to you.


Love, (Matthew 5:44),
Lauchlan
