Ok, I have not posted anything in a REALLY long time. No excuses! Well, I knew I probably wouldn't post much March and April but it's June! As I told two of my closest friends this week, Satan has been doing everything in his power to keep me from writing on here. Although I have 4 posts sitting in my draft box on AOL he "busied" me all weekend so that I wouldn't post them. I watched FIVE movies, read a whole book (plus some of two others), laid out at the pool, went to church, cooked (I don't cook much) and seemed to do everything BUT post anything but no more. I'm back.
I am reading "Spiritual Warfare" by Jerry Rankin right now and yesterday I read this,
"When I was a boy, I heard a story that has been around for a long time. It is about a missionary who led to the Lord a man who had been somewhat of a reprobate. The man said to the missionary, "Ever since I gave my life to Christ, I feel like there are two dogs fighting within me. There is a evil dog that wants me to return to my old habits and a good dog that wants me to live right." The missionary asked, "Which one is winning?" The man paused for a moment and replied, "The one I feed." It's just that simple. It is not something beyond our control. It's something we choose to do, either to walk in the Spirit or not."
So right this minute I am CHOOSING to resist the evil dog and feed the good dog. (this has no reference to my four-legged boys, even though yes I have an evil one and a good one). I have 4 posts that I am going to try to post THIS week.
Bye for now!
