A Little Encouragement - April 16, 2009

Little foxes


Often, it's the "little foxes" that spoil our blessing - the little word said to us or by us, or the little action taken. Whatever the case is, Satan uses the little things to annoy, or discourage us. These seemingly harmless matters take our mind and heart off our focus on God and our love for people. We should value our loved ones and friends over material things; a broken heart needs care more than a broken piece of treasured item. We need to be careful, lest the evil one uses the "little foxes" to rob us of our peace and joy. Let us concentrate on what really matters.

God's Word says:

"Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom." - Song of Solomon 2:15 (New International Version)
