The Devil




The Devil is real.

Very real.

He’s not a cartoon drawing on the side of the deviled ham can.

He’s a trickster. A smooth operator. A master of disguise.

He wants all of us to fight amongst ourselves about petty issues.

He wants to destroy Christian homes.

He wants to rip apart the church.

He used to hide out and be hard to find but now he walks boldly down main street and people still don’t see him.

It’s a crying shame what we’ve allowed him to accomplish.
