The Thief

My friend Reba posted part of John 10 on Facebook this morning, "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." We have a real enemy. His only job is to kill, steal and destroy. We have also been offered life and life abundantly from the source of Life. This world is a battle ground. It isn't land that is at stake; it is our very souls. I can feel the war waging all around me. I can feel the enemy trying to come in and steal what the Holy Spirit is doing in me. I must remain in the Life.
