The Enemy

10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. (John 10:10 NIV)

Our Enemy prowls around, continually searching for ways to bring us down to interfere in our lives. Make no mistake, his intention is to break our relationship with Christ. But too, he wants to find ways to subtly corrupt our lives.

For most of us this means keeping us forever busy. Distraction is a powerful drug, it keeps us not only from a strong relationship with God, but from everything and everyone positive around us. If he can keep us busy enough there is no time for anything or anyone else, much less God.

We must continually assess if what we are busy on is of value or simply background noise. Seeking both to be with God and to do right things.
