Boomerangs

Love is a challenge.

I reread what I posted maybe two weeks ago, wow, good stuff.
Love, love, love, love. I set myself up didnt'I? Absolutely.

I've learned that when I pontificate on something that has just inspired me, challenged me, and equipped me for good works I place myself in the middle of a pond as a decoy duck ready for the first shot!

I call them boomerangs out of nowhere. You look to see who shot it? You can't find the thrower! You know the mechanics or physics of a boomerang right? You throw it and it comes back at ya and if it is wood, watch out!

You through out the affirmation that God is amazing, you praise him, you declare your desire to serve him wholly and back at you with lightning speed comes something that causes you to duck!

Church related issues are the absolute worse. You don't expect it, you don't plan for it and out of the blue you see it coming and you don't have time to duck.

I propose that the thrower of the boomerang is none other than the evil one, I know a little fanatical sounding but true non the less. The evil one is never out in the open , it usually stands behind your best friend, your pastor, your confidant, your husband, your children. It puts someone else in front of it to take the blame.
You know those words spoken to a person by none other than Jesus, "Stand behind me Satan."

Love, still a clear message even for a boomerang from out of nowhere!
