Dare You To Move (part 2)

I had six amazing days back-to-back! And then...Sunday.

The entire week I felt great! Amazing! I had a friend in Nashville pour into me spiritually. I went to the gym everyday and worked out with two different people - punks trying to crush me. I went to church Wednesday night. I changed my meds. Had an amazing Board Of Directors meeting yesterday.

Not to mention, last week on-air I've felt like 125%, everyday. (Very unusual)

Then came Sunday. Today. Our church dinner is tonight (Sunday). We had planned to skip the usual morning service because two trips to Alliston is a bit crazy so we prepared for the drive tonight for dinner and service.

But this morning I was lying in bed, feeling unmotivated. 9am. Didn't feel depressed but didn't feel like getting up. The sun was pouring through the window but it wasn't enough to lure me out of bed. I put my iPod on and listened to some soft Christian hits. Back to sleep and woke up and 11. Pushed repeat. I could hear Janice downstairs setting up the Christmas tree and I went back to slumber with "slumber Christian hits". Woke up 2 and as I contemplated blowing off the rest of the day, Switchfoot played in my ears.

"Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go? Salvation is here"


Then -

"I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor"


Enough!!! I got up. I felt great! Got dressed and ready for church Christmas dinner!

Hey "spirit of depression - you can bite me!"

  1. Yes, Scott that is the way! You have the Resurrection Power of Christ and Jesus is the Name above All Names including satan! I know it is suppose to be a capital "s" but when it comes to sentences with Jesus, that is the only capitol letter name. You did exactly what Luke 10:19, ordered by Jesus said to do: behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. Keep going...days like Sunday morning will get less and less because of the power in you and finally you will be free indeed! I am so proud of you!! Dianne
