Early this morning I was proning and uncomfortable, and trying to pray. God brought to mind this amazing scene from the movie Apocalypto. Our hero is fleeing his pursuers and in desperation leaps over a great waterfall. As he comes out of the water at about the two minute mark in this video, his whole perspective changes, and he turns in defiance and gives this INCREDIBLE speech:
I am Jaguar Paw, son of Flint Sky. My father hunted this forest before me... My name is Jaguar Paw! I am a hunter! This is MY forest! And my sons will hunt it with their sons when I am gone. Come on! COME ON!!!"
And them God spoke Romans 8:37 to me:
"No, in all these things, we are MORE than conquerors through Him that loved us."
God was gently reminding me not to have a victim mentality. I am NOT a victim here. I am a child of the King, and I am walking with him in HIS Covid Forest, and I AM NOT AFRAID!!!
