Where Satan Attacks

21 10 2007

Where does Satan attack you?  Sometimes he attacks us in places we have left unguarded.  At other times the Enemy attacks us where we are weakest to temptation.  I have found that Satan attacks me most at the place he knows that he can get to me.  It may not always be temptation to sin, but he attacks with trials (see Job).  For me the place he can hurt the most is with my family.

Satan does not cause every sickness or illness!  But he uses our response as a way to test us.

When our children were young, I would be tested in my response to their illnesses.  As they grew older I was tested in my response as they played sports and did dance team.  As they started dating I was tested in my response to where they went and whom they saw.  As they have grown older I have been tested in my ability to let go and let them be adults.

Which is hardest for you to face?  The temptation or the testing?
