The Lion Prowls


 









What is that thing you love too much,
Though you know you should not?
Something to eat, to drink, to wear,
All of the wealth you’ve got?
 
The devil’s in the little things
That turn your thoughts away
From following the path He set,
Distractions on the way.
 
The lion watches, unsleeping,
Seeking a soul to claim.
Waiting to catch us in weakness,
In simple greed, or shame.
 
Be wary, always, for your soul
Is his greatest desire.
Hold fast to the word of the Lord,
Let it be your heart’s fire.
 
The world is broken, sin is real,
We face that truth each day.
Keep your eyes fixed on God alone,
He holds that cat at bay.  
 
1 Peter 5:8-11
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

The amazing photo is a gift from AC and her trip to Africa. Thank you!!
