Think twice before pointing your finger of blame.
Ephesians 6:12 (NLT)
For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
There are unseen powers of evil behind the visible acts of evil. Keep your eye on the real enemy.
I can’t tell a man’s own heart,
but I sure see what they do,
and if they choose to rip apart
my world, I come unglued.
Perhaps there’s goodness deep inside,
perhaps the Lord lurks there,
but hurt my own? Just try to hide;
I’ll find you anywhere.
I know that judgement’s not my brief,
nor vengeance my portfolio;
just hold this in sure belief:
there’s no-where I won’t go.
I turn my cheek, all the same;
that way I get better aim.
There are many folks lugging around a portfolio of vengeance, Andrew, and the extra weight keeps their spirits from soaring. Yours, on the other hand, flies high.
