To be a great fighter does not stand only to fight for sickness or diseases including sports competition but it implies lots of things of great insight and aspiration to cling on. Why when storms comes to you, you do not allow in manifesting disappointments or frustrations because we have this innate strength to fight the good fight no matter what will be the cost. Greater we know that we are indeed a unique individuals and we have the capacity to all types of issues in life. Each human being is distinct with each other and is not giving up easily regardless of the struggles he or she is facing in.
But why sometimes we allow the devil or any negative circumstances to make us unhappy, dismay and weak. We became frustrated and disappointed because the things that are happening around us seems not that way we expected it to be. We are strong in many ways because of God’s sovereignty which is strengthening us. Imagine life without struggle or issues, you will never experience to be a good fighter because nothing has to be fought for.
An enemy is not only the external aspects but also the internal aspects of human lives. We think that our enemy is our neighbors, classmates and officemates but don’t you ever imagine that what inside you can be your greatest enemy because it makes you to do something that you hate to do and sometimes it is hard to defeat. We became weak if we allow our human flesh to control our lives and directing our decision. It is important to evaluate one self to know the strengths and weaknesses.
Through this you can specifically identify which part of yourself needs submission and to overcome. If evil thoughts enter your mind what is the best remedy to do is simply to ignore the negative ideas, keep your self busy and focus on things that is worthwhile. Be ready and be alert! This is not unusual for it is part of our human nature. Although, sometimes it is hard to shift our mind, because we like to consent to such ideas and we tend to forget that whatever information we nourished our minds will surely reflect into our characters and actions.
That is why we should try to understand that to be a fighter doesn’t mean only to fight the sickness, the external enemies but rather what comes on our thoughts. Literally we become a fighter if we feel we are in great danger or if we received a report of incurable ailment but how about the negative words, ideas and pictures that comes in our minds which can lead us to be a bad
person.
Be vigilant always because in times like this you don’t know what will be your greatest enemy; yourself, your neighbors, friends, relatives, or your own self. You always nurture and take cares of your body but inside that body has a mind and soul who will make you to do something whether good or bad. This is seldom being taught in the house or in school that defeating your own mind to do horrible things is so important for growth and happiness.
