“And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” -Matthew 18:2-3

The Serpent has not changed since Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden. He is still the same evil and sneaky creature. He still lies, and lies well. He whispers doubts in our mind. Doubts, that if we allow them, can cause us to allow our Faith to weaken or loose our Faith completely . But without Faith it is impossible to please God. The Devil knows this.
He also lies in an incredibly believable way. For example, the devil, our accusor, will try to convince us that we are just not good enough. Sometimes, the devil will whisper small thoughts in our mind, such as we are not beautiful enough, smart enough or strong enough. The devil may whisper that if God was so great, He would make our path easier, He would heal us of all of our sickness or pain or that He would provide us with a better job, a better home, a better car…
Once the devil convinces us of small things, it will become even easier to convince us of big things like God doesn’t really love us!
But here is the great news! We do not have to listen to the devil.
Instead we can listen to God! Who tells us how much He loves us. For after all, “ We love because he first loved us”. Who tells us “He has prepared a place for us”. Who tells us that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made”.
Heaven is waiting for us. Choose Jesus. He truly came to Save us, build a Bridge and bring us Home 🙂
