Taking cues from Deborah Meister’s reflection from 4/25, comments Vicky G. wonders about the threats and obstacles to our faith. She concludes, though, that, through Jesus, we have the power to overcome these spiritual pitfalls and dangers:
Thank you Deborah. I too read this and wonder, how do those deadly snakes, poisons and such apply today? Your meditation made me think: what poisons are in my life, who or what represents venomous snakes, are there demons around me with which I am dealing? Yes to all of these. But today’s reading tells me Jesus gives me the ability to handle these situations, to learn from them and to continue to battle for myself and for those around me. Thank you for helping me to hear His voice today.
