Many of us run from things we're responsible for, we attribute a lot to "the handwork of the devil" indeed sometimes Satan can turn at our accusations and scream "Oh Lord, I'm innocent"
Like Eve we say " the serpent made me eat it" and like Adam we indirectly blame God sometimes "the woman, whom YOU GAVE ME, handed me some and I ate".
If only we can learn to sincerely say "forgive me Lord, I have sinned, through my fault". Forgiveness and healing would've been easier.
Let us not blame others for our faults. Let us own up whenever we make a mistake and ask for pardon. We'll become better that way. Leave the devil alone and he'll leave you.
Who loves the devil anyway? Then stop calling him every time, focus on Jesus.
Or is Christ not enough for you?
He is enough for me !

Very true in our own lives, especially politicians lives---and I often think that if Adam and Eve rather than blaming the Eve---the serpent---and Adam---Eve---they had both just begged forgiveness---perhaps we all would have stayed in Paradise.
ReplyDeleteVery true brother. We are cynical that way, blaming everything else but ourselves. May God give us the Spirit of truth to know when we are wrong and be sincere about it, asking for pardon and restoration.

Thank you. I've been seeing this everywhere I turn lately.
