I’m not what he says I am
Satan is the big accuser. Jesus Himself calls Satan a liar and deceiver. I refuse to accept Satan’s lying accusations against me. I refuse his false depiction of me. I am not what he says I am. I am what God says I am. God says I am a brand new creature — in Christ. […]
Behaving Stupidly
Satan had it. Israel had it. Uzziah had it. Peter warned against it. Arrogance and pride. So easy to see in others. So difficult to see in myself: pride in one’s self It seems to be one of those sins “that goes before you…” announcing itself to others (before you even arrive!). […]

An unguarded life
Like a bleating baby lamb alone in green meadows, I have discovered myself surrounded by giant forests where wolves lurk. Been there yourself?

Satan On Earth

The Dumbass Lamb
Dumb is as dumb does, not as dumb could have been. The dumb lamb is exactly what God created him to be. And I tend to think that God created the lamb, as-is, in order to illustrate to us just how we look! God characterizes us Christians as lambs, and the Devil as a roaring […]
