Did that bring a Bible verse to mind??
1 Peter 5 :8
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
I dont know about you, but whenever Ive thought about that verse in the past Ive seen the lion as the more powerful agent in the equation. However, that wee puppy puts things in perspective doesn't he? He perhaps represents you and I. We might be small, we might be young, we might look as though we couldnt stand up to a lion......... but we are focused, fierce and fearless and we can defend ourselves quite nicely against the prowling lion. It seems unlikely. But it is clearly true. SO the moral of the story today is.... if you can feel the lion lurking at your doorway, if fear and darkness are encroaching dont cower in a corner. Come out all guns blazing, dressed in the armour of God, armed with the sword of the spirit, barking like a maniac and tell him where to go :) He who is in you is MUCH greater than he who is in the world.
