SLAY YOUR DEMONS – JOHN ELEFANTE

SLAY YOUR DEMONS

And I keep telling myself
Tear the walls down, shine your armor
Slay your demons, walk on water

Inside these prison walls I’m planning my escape
There’s freedom on the outside, just beyond the gates
And when I get out there, I’ll look up at the Son
And I will beg for mercy, for all that I have done

And I keep telling myself
Tear the walls down, shine your armor
Slay your demons, walk on water

And what is this frame of mind that keeps in the race
We run in the wrong direction, cause the truth is hard to face
And why spend a lifetime looking down the barrel of a gun
It’s a very simple answer, two of them make one

And I keep telling myself
For everyday that passes is a day that’s passed you by
Unless you’re on the pathway to the light
And if the mountain is to high for you to climb
Just take the hand you’ll make it, you will find

About Steven Gledhill

My name is Steven Gledhill, a certified substance use disorder (SUD) professional of more than two decades. I am narried with three sons and two grandsons. I recognize that every person who's ever lived is subject to the human condition, valuing self and the need for control above all else. Therefore, all are inclined to be self-centered with the preoccupation to be absolutely satisfied and comfortable. The prerequisite for satisfying comfort is the control that all seek and that none attain. Furthermore, all of us are vulnerable to temptation and challenged desperately to resist it. We have all given ourselves over to human desire and have fallen to temptation and engaged in behavior that has potential for harm and so we all have experienced harm. We have all have experienced the pain and discomfort associated with unfavorable outcomes from self-centered behavior to one degree or another. It is only in relationship with God through Jesus Christ that anyone and everyone has the opportunity for restoration from the ills of self-centered thinking and behavior. Faith in the living God when realized through experience, appeals most to our intellectual sensibilities. Transformed by a renewed mind, it is reasonable to anticipate that God is involved with us becuase of his love for us. Relationship with God is reasonable and is as real as anything you have ever seen, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted. The Bible says, "Taste and see that the Lord is good. (The word, Lord, speak's to God's sovereignty; something even Albert Einstein believed about God.)
