Don’t flip the switch, call God!
When I used to relapse frequently, I remember making that choice. Looking back, it was like a spiritual switch. There would be an internal battle, and then many times I would flip the switch to “Yes, I’m gonna do it”. And from that point there was really no turning back.
It’s like I would let the devil in, and then I was just along for the ride.
Nowadays, having a greater understanding of spiritual warfare, even when I am faced with temptation, I refuse to hit that switch.
I think it’s largely because I’m more trained to call on God. I get on the floor and start seeking His face. He gives me understanding and peace.
