Seeking Safety
Soul Snack 9/123 ... Seeking Safety
The delicious and the delightful can be just as damaging as the downright sinful.
Ponder the pleasure, pursue the possibilty but never without first examining the path it creates.
The seduction of happiness is no joy for me when it has delivered the reduction of my eternity.
Shaking my fists at evil, raging in prayer on my knees and raisng my voice in earnest protest to the Throne of Grace is the healthy path to subdue the carnal.
The battle with evil is often fleeting, but presently returns. The weak will, the exhausted body and the weary mind all opportunities for a fresh deceitful assault. The tormented spirit and the troubled soul he will punch, in exactly the same place as he previously has - the bruise just hurts more each time.
His lie is that life is a playground - Jesus truth is that life is a battleground!
But in this battle I have already won - no matter what it feels like!
With Jesus on my side, Jesus and I are always the majority!
