scripture
Ephesians 6:11-12
Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
En Espanol, Efesios 6:11-12
quote
We stumble and fall constantly even when we are most enlightened. But when we are in true spiritual darkness, we do not even know that we have fallen.
Thomas Merton
real life
Four or five weeks ago, our church began doing outreach in our apartment complex. We have so far held an ice cream social and a pumpkin decorating contest. Two weeks ago, I went out to the car and found a business card promoting “adult entertainment” services. It upset me that this type of business has a place in our society, that it decided to promote itself our complex, and that the cards were completely accessible to children. What is interesting about this situation is that this is the first time this has happened in all the time that my wife and I have lived there. Certainly the good that we desire to do there is being resisted by the powers that be.
