In Appalachia, the mountains seems to be a place where you can sense the presence of God. In the Bible, it says many times that Jesus went up to the mountain to pray. The people that are raised in that area seem to have a desire to serve the Lord. Our life is a battle between God and Satan for our souls. It's a fight between our flesh, which is the mind, and the spirit, which is our soul. The flesh lust against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh. We will encounter many things in life as we mature from children to adults. Some encounters can be spiritual, physical, mentally, or even financial. As we go through life, we make all kinds of choices and decisions. We need to make sure that we stop and think about what the choice or decisions are about and how it will affect our future. First and foremost, we need to ask God to help us make the right choice or decision. The choices and decisions in life will be the way our life will turn out. This was my Path to God in Appalachia. He never left me or gave up on me. He loves me just as I am. He has taken me to his plans and purpose. What a mighty God we serve! Be strong in the Lord and His might, be bold and stand your ground in Jesus, the Rock of our salvation. You will defeat the enemy and be victorious in Christ.
