Fantastic Friday #791 - Holes



Holes


14 Whoever is pregnant with evil
conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment.
15 Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit they have made.
16 The trouble they cause recoils on them;
their violence comes down on their own heads. Psalm 7:14-16



This week I observed a couple of different holes. I found a shell that had holes in it from a deteriorating eroding surf that had pounded the shell against the sand for some time that caused many holes in the shell. I also observed a deep hole in the sand where the surf had hit the same spot over and over again. In both cases the holes had increased over time with the pounding of the waves. What can we say about then about the pounding of the enemy on our daily lives? The enemy is relentless and causes us to stumble when we allow it. If we dig our own hole, the enemy is not going to help us but help us dig a deeper hole. It is important for us to stay strong and rely on the Lord to fill our holes when we make a mistake. We need to rely on the fact that only God can fill our holes and pull us out. 


Have a great weekend.
