don't you dare

Don’t you dare start listening to the lie that Jesus is not enough for you.

Don’t you dare start seeking His love in other forms— in other people, in other things; you will be disappointed.  I know it’s hard, but just keep on fighting through.  You know why it’s so hard this time?  Because you’re trying to do it on your own.  You’re trying to do everything with your own strength.  Do you honestly think you can do this yourself?  You, with the hardened heart, with the dry throat, with the hungry soul?  You can’t even lift your hands to praise Him near enough without His help.  But trust in Him, and You’ll make it through this.  You always have, you always will.  And this not by your power, but by His.

So don’t you dare, Angie.

Don’t you dare begin to listen to that lie.
