A Crocodile in your Life

One animal or reptile I have never liked, is the crocodile.
I have never trusted them, until...
We are up at Kakado National Park, in the Northern Territory and went out in a 'safe' boat to view the salt water croc's.
Our guide was paranoid about our safety. "Keep seated at all times," he instructed.
"Yes I agree with that," I thought!
The first one sighted came swimming over...
"Why he looks harmless enough,
rather like a big floating log, no noise, nothing." 
And this is where people go wrong......
BY Trusting!!!

When a bait is hung over the water. THAT LOG, suddenly becomes alive and jumps high up out of the water, to appease his greed.
No wonder so many people get taken and eaten by Croc's every year.

This reminds me of a scripture about Satan the devil..
The Bible INFORMS US:
  
"Be self-controlled and alert.
Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." (eat-up, destroy)  1 Peter 5:8

Ahhhh, so we'll be safe. Because if we see a roaring lion, we'll know it's the devil and stay away...LOL... NOT SO!! 

He actually counterfeits himself. 
The Bible INFORMS AGAIN..


For Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 5:8)
He wants you, and plans to get you, however he can.
And, he is very subtle in the process.  

* Doubt: Makes you question God???
* Discouragement: Makes you look at your problems instead of to God.
* Diversion: Say's wrong,  look's more attractive than right.
* Defeat: Screams that you're a failure, so you give up.
* Delay: Sneaks up and says, "do it later."  And, it never gets done.


INSTEAD
Look to the Morning Star, Jesus Christ.
Read His Word and believe His promise.
And He will help you to climb your Mountain,
One step at a time.
Then, your scar's will turn to Stars...
And You will Shine!!

Rev 22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star."
