Phoenix Log

So, I had thought about starting another blog called "Phoenix Log." It'd just be the thoughts & intrigues of the "superhero"; a semi-fictional take on the spiritual battles of everyday life. But I'm not sure that it's such a good idea, considering I have a hard time keeping up with one blog. Anyway, here's an entry for Phoenix Log, let me know what you think...

After gaining the victory over a tiny, yet troublesome battle in this great war, I pray that I can, once and for all, leave self contempt at the door. I have fought her and fought her, always thinking "Never again!" But Contempt always crawls back for more. She's quite cunning at being normal, a seemingly simple motivational tool. I know all the words to beat her down, and with the authority of the Spirit, His sword swings ever true. But, where do I draw the line of being always content, but never satisfied? How do I strive for the best me there can be AND love me as I am? I guess this is where the full armor of God comes in handy. Though I think Paul may have missed a piece, for I often need "goggles of grace" so I can look my self in the face.
