Storm killer – brand new term I found in a blog I follow, God’s Beloved Daughters. In her post, A Calm and Undisturbed Heart and Mind, she said:
We chose to either look to the storm or look to the Lord. Looking to the storm indicates faith in the enemy’s ability to defeat you (and diminishes the work our Lord accomplished on your behalf). Looking to the Lord indicates “the leaning of your entire personality on God in Christ in absolute trust and confidence in His power, wisdom, and goodness” (2 Timothy 1:5 – Amplified)
She then said looking to The Lord is a storm killer. I love that. That’s my new phrase this week. I have been meditating everyday for about three weeks now. When deep in the meditative trance, I focus my gaze straight ahead, eyes closed, and feel a deep connection with God. I look straight at what I feel is Him, and let all else drop away and tell Him I’ll follow where He leads for the day ahead. Nothing else, no one else, drives where I go that day. Thus – my storm killer.
I try not to let the storms of life dictate my actions. According to her post, I’m taking away the enemy’s ability to defeat me and take over my day. So far it works. I have not been happier than I have these three weeks, spending that 30 minutes each morning in the early hours communing with God. Who knew I was “storm killing”?
And so, as another day goes by, that is my goal – to live with a calm and undisturbed heart and mind, check out the whole post – it’s very calming and reassuring, and…I have written.
