"It is funny how mortals always picture us as putting things into their minds: In reality our best work is done by keeping things out."
~ C. S. Lewis from Screwtape Letters
How totally true this is. We would be farther along on our journeys to God if we "remembered" to read the Bible daily, if we "remembered" to pray to our Father each day, if we "remember" to look after our neighbor whom we haven't seen in a while, or any number of little things that we could easily do to help others, or give them peace of mind, a friendly ear, or just the knowledge that someone cares. The devil doesn't have to spend his time "tempting" us, we are quite capable of that all on our own.
Just my thoughts for the day.
