One morning Sam and I were in a public restroom. It was modestly dirty, not too bad, but someplace I would never want to eat in. I said something along the lines of, "Make sure you pee in the toilet."
To which he responded, "Yeah. Bad guys pee on the seat, right mommy?"
"Yes, they don't obey and go in the water. Why do they do that?" I asked.
"The devil." was his earnest response.
Another time we were waiting to eat outside of a restaurant. The boys were 'racing' up and down the deserted sidewalk.
Sam wore his little self out!
He said, "My legs runned out."
I asked, "How did that happen?"
"The devil. They need to get fill-ded back up."
"Well, who is going to fill them back up?"
"God."
So simple. God=good, Devil=bad
While listening to the Old Testament I was surprised to realize that Satan is hardly mentioned! He gets very little publicity.
I was listening to Joyce Meyer. She was talking about living a righteous life.
One thing that she said really stood out to me. She said (and I'm paraphrasing) to NOT try and change yourself. Instead, get to know Jesus, spend time with him, and he will just gradually change you.
Why does she make it sound so easy and I try to make it so hard?
Accentuate the Positive! Genius!! It eliminates the negative!!!
