Enemy at the gate

Enemy at the gate. In our everyday lives. Enemy of our souls–the deceiver.

Making promises that entice. Feeding our longing for things to be easy. Comfortable. 

Highlighting our fears of future unknowns. Making us wonder about God’s good purpose. His ordained plan.

Sometimes it’s tempting to give in to the lie. What sounds better. Almost true.

Necessity

You reveal mystery in the quiet, often. 

Solitude. 

Hard won in certain seasons. Mere breaths of time when children are young. Random moments, captured here and there.

But out of necessity, we take them. Make time. And draw near.
