While walking down the back streets today we noticed a young boy. This boy couldn’t have been more than ten. He was walking a mother goat and her babies somewhere. The group I was with talked about how cute baby goats are. **and how ugly grown goats are ☺ ** We then yelled ahead to the boy to stop, we wanted to talk with him.
He turned around and stopped for a moment. He smiled that big Haitian smile. He only paused for a moment then looked off into the distance and then looked back at us and turned and walked away. So we tried to get his attention again. This same thing happened a few times. We then realized his father was behind us watching and making sure the boy did what he was supposed to do. And that didn’t involve stopping and talking to the foreigners.How many times have we been given a job from our Father and get distracted? This is exactly what satan wants. He wants us to get our focus off God and the job He has given us to do. Satan uses the world around us as a distraction. But, God has great plans for you. And the devil doesn’t want you to fulfill this mission. Just remember God is a God of strength. God is a God of courage. God is a good God. He has great and mighty things in store for His kingdom and His people and wants you to be a part of all of these plans.
I know that it is hard but be thankful for the devil trying to attack you. It means that he knows that great things are going to be done through you. Take it as a blessing on what is already happening in and through you. I consider it an honor that the devil tries to attack me. Join me in saying to the devil, “I got the power of God, So bring it on.”
