As we grow older
Something tells our hearts to grow colder
So that we will walk so much slower
I could feel my temperature drop
And I doubt it will ever stop
Hell is hot for a good reason
Because my soul is freezing
I will walk down the route for a season
Then I'm afriad I don't know what I'm thinking
Sinking deep, because I'm my own shrink
Can you tell I fall asleep when I give to the blink
Please don't think
We will always be faced with temptations; Satan will always try to distract us from God's plan for our life by tempting us to disobey Him. But we must know that our God is stronger than those temptations, than the devil's schemes, or else we "blink", as I call it. And by 'blinking', we're giving Satan a foothold, and we end up getting into a sinful habbit--even if it's doubt, worry, or whatever it may be. For me, it's thinking too much. Often times, we can doubt God. Satan will always tempt us with this question, the same question he tempted Eve with in the Garden of Eden: Does God know what He's talking about? And sadly, I find myself feeling sad and lonely because I've believed the lies of the deceiver, and I dwell on these thoughts in my head. But my gracious God will always tear down these walls of doubt and welcome me back, even though I don't deserve it!
