Don't let satan ruin a good time

I have recently (as of January 1st.) taken over the task of doing the dishes every evening after dinner. I got this from a dear friend from a church I was a member at 5 years ago. He often told the story of how his wife had a dish washer, his two hands. I admired this man's marriage and felt if it was good for him I would like to honor my wife the same way he did his.

I have enjoyed my duties. I enlist two children to dry while I wash. We have enjoyed the time we spend while doing this. This evening we were listening to an FFH cd(it is mandatory that we listen to only Christian music while performing this task). I was singing along and thinking just how awesome our God is, and what a great time I was spending with my kids. All of the sudden my two helpers were arguing about something. I blew up and ordered them not to talk to one another for the remainder of the event. I was upset because I was really enjoying the time. I soon realized this was another attack by satan to sabotage my good time.

This reminded me that we must keep our guards up at all times. The moment we let them down or when we think everything is going just great he will attack. Be strong; ask God for His assistance in this never ending battle.

Steelers Season Over.

Well it is a sad as my Steelers fell to Jacksonville last night. My terrible towel will be put in storage until August. They had an ok season in my opinion. It started well and they kind of stumbled through the later part of the season. Many injuries to several key players made it hard to stay consistant. They gave a solid effort but came up a bit short. Once my boys are out of it I kind of just watch with little interest. Oh well as they say there is always next year. If your team is still playing enjoy the rest of the playoffs.
