Good and Evil

I believe good will ultimately overcome in the end. However, in the meantime…

Evil always seeks to overpower good. That’s why it is called evil.

  • It tries to defeat and destroy the good coming out from others.
  • It wants to be in charge/control.
  • It wants to be centerstage.
  • It wants all eyes on it and what it is doing.
  • It uses fears, threats, intimidations towards the innocent who are trying quietly, faithfully to do good.
  • It feels it won’t get any resistance back from them. They will quietly give in to the demands of it – not wanting to ‘disobey’ or cause a ‘scene’.
  • It is a bully – always pushing, shoving, scheming its next action to get its way.
  • It is very sneaky and wants you to do its work.
  • It will make you think you thought it up.
  • It will condemn you when you do it.
  • It will tell you it was your fault.
  • It will tell you-‘you are hopeless’.

Do not listen to its lies. You are stronger than it. Continue doing your good work.

God is for you.

Be Strong!

Sometimes I wonder if we allow others to overpower us because we are/were weak.

Because we’re too weak to stand up for ourselves to say what we think, to do what we need. Then when things don’t go as we hoped or wanted, we blame others

Do we request laws in an attempt to ‘force’ others to treat us a certain way…not to ‘talk to us this way’ …when we didn’t need another law; we only need to take responsibility and talk it out?

Why are we so afraid of human interaction? Why are we so fearful of conflict and being disliked?

Let’s choose to be strong, not giving our personal power over to another, but facing ourselves, facing others and learning to be the authority of our own life.

How Many Times Part 2

Yesterday I was talking about remembering words we think. Today I want to remember words to say.

How many times have we thought, “I need to tell them how much I appreciated what they did, said, are etc.?” But we didn’t. “I should write them a letter, email, drop by and tell them…” but we get busy and forget.

Today I want to encourage us all to remember to do, to tell, to write these words from our thoughts so others can hear them and be strengthened.

Keep a notebook, if necessary, but tell people their good!
