Iris, though I open this page early in the moring, I just read it now, near to duty off.. I should say it is realy a wonderful post to me.

how to be close to the Lord. reading bible every day? praying every day? even I do reading, praying, sometimes I still feel that the lord is far away, I know it is my weakness, Satan’s lie to my heart… I should give my heart to the holly one, he will protect me under his arms like hen to her child.

In Other Words: Well, what did you expect?…

“Well, what did you expect?”

Has anyone ever said that to you? Or have you ever said it to someone?

My response to both questions is “yes.”…

“He took his eyes off of His Savior and started to sinkâ€¦” One of my favorite Bible stories and such powerful imagery. Very effective with the quote you picked. Wonderful writing.

Excellent post Iris! So important to stay close to Jesus. Our enemy is very crafty and wants to catch us off guard and cause us to stumble. But if we keep our eyes on Jesus, we will walk in victory! Blessings on your day.

Wonderful post Iris. It will be heaven indeed when we no longer have an enemy who seeks to destroy us daily. The great news is – he has already been defeated.
I’m going to try to write on this. It is late in the day, and my little brain doesn’t seem to work very well – but I’ll try.

Powerful…..

I remember seeing Satan potrayed in Passion of the Christ…. he was done so with beauty…isn’t that how satan really is…. something that will easily trip us up? yes….

fortunately, we know how the story ends……
