The devil should’ve took me out at Waffle House years ago. Especially after all the tragedy last week, we are coming 10x harder harder against the gates of hell ⚔️❤️🔥
Feel like the enemy has thrown some wild distractions at me this camp, I continued to work, continued to stay faithful. Today I’m feeling strong like a lion. God’s strength is undisputed.
