As I continue writing about identity theft and creating awareness, I'm learning that people are reluctant to acknowledge these two words are real.
It's natural for us to want to sweep unpleasant topics under the rug.
What we need to understand is that sweeping it under the rug doesn't make it go away.
We simply cannot run from our enemies.
We can try but they will catch up with us sooner or later.
The Phantoms of identity theft seek to steal medical records, social security numbers, driver's licenses, bank accounts, college funds and retirement.
The lightening speed of the information age has given people the microwave instant gratification they so desired to have, but along with that instant gratification comes the apprehension and anxiety of the unseen and unknown Phantoms.
What is not understood is that The Phantoms who steal identity have been a part of the human society since the beginning of time.
Where there is good there is evil.
The invisible Phantoms of identity theft are the instigators of evil.
Their intent is to destroy hope by doubt and fear into the minds and hearts of people.
Shame, guilt, anger, embarrassment and other disparaging emotions created by this negative energy can cause loss of self-esteem and hope.
Without hope there cannot be life.
As the journey of our life moves forward we must have some level of hope to continue.
When the Phantoms begin to devour our lives we can become hostage to the circumstances or we can look for the golden key to unlock the chains of slavery the Phantoms use to keep us imprisoned until there is no reason to live.
We cannot lose hope and turn life over to the control of Phantoms of Identity Theft.
It is so easy to just give up and give into the trials we sometimes face.
It takes courage to work to keep hope alive.
There are only a few ways to feed hope the nourishment it needs to keep growing.
The key is look for hope.
After my financial identity theft and the death of my husband, I almost lost all hope.
Finding a way out of the pits of hell where the Phantoms live was one of the most difficult tasks I have endured in my life.
But I allowed myself to go there.
Looking to God with gratitude for what I had left was the turning point to recover from myself made prison.
With gratitude as my ammunition the hope started to grow again.
When hope is growing and becoming strong in our lives we then have the power of rebuilding.
