THE CHAINS

Long ago, there was a village blacksmith who boasted of his invincible strength. He proudly declared he could break anyone's chains. When strong steel links were brought to him, he found the weakest link... and easily snapped the metal.

One day, the blacksmith broke the law and was put into chains. He scoffed at his jailers. Didn't they know his incredible power?

Carefully he sifted through the links... again and again... unable to find the usual flaw. Then, in horror he realized he'd been bound by... his OWN chains!

And, that's the way it is with sin. You may think you're strong enough to withstand Satan's enticements. But, when you repeatedly give in to temptation, you become what has become a habit.

Dear one, what "binds" you today? Ask for God's help. He will set you free!

"Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you." - James 4: 7

Thanks Frank, so many times I find my self not reading if something seems long, so brief but long enough to cover the subject matter like a mini skirt!
