answers are not essential, trust is

Psalm 31: 4 & 8
4
Free me from the trap that is set for me,

for you are my refuge.

Today's reading of every day with Jesus was suprisingly just right for me! I realised that the devil does indeed set traps for you... and you know he knows stuff too...so by golly he's not going to place in front of you cheesecake if you're lactose intolerant and try and tempt you, he's going to use the things you love the things that can make the biggest impacts...the things that you believe is supposed to all good...and he's going to place it that trap exactly when you've got strength in your knees again...cause nothing hurts more than falling from a height...I think a lot of times we don't just take God out of the equation we take the devil out too...i mean i'm not about to start blaming every bad thing on the devil and never take responsibility...but i think we are so unaware and such "realistic" ppl these days...that we've got God down cause well we believe in him we've been thought about him...and we know he's real...but we just use that trump card and never believe how powerful and how much the devil can use the snarly sneaky ways to get to us...

For someone like me, it's easy...easy to blame myself....i was stupid enough, i should have been strong enough, i should have done this and that...while this is true...i think to a certain extent we need to know that to be strong enough and to not be stupid enough....and to not have done this and that...i need God to help me trump the little traps of the devil cause traps are not meant to be seen, i'm not going to see it coming but God can.

So that's how we got to the title..you don't need to have the answers to ur questions...cause even if you do answers don't always answer the question...if you get what i mean...like they don't always satisfy....but trust...that's unquenchable.

8 You have not handed me over to the enemy
but have set my feet in a spacious place.

Have you ever realised how tiny airplane toilets are...does it just make u feel so insecure...i remember ages ago...when we were thought how to catch slain ppl...hahha yeah they thought us such things :P you stance is meant to be that you have enough space between your legs one in the front and one in the back...so that you have a secure ground to catch whatever's thrown at you...if you keep your legs close together try catching someone and see if you fall with them too...

So people have your feet in a good stance...on a solid rock...so when the devil comes up with some more crapp to throw at you...you're holding the ultimate trump card
