Who or What Has Control of Your Life?

by Dr. Anthony Murphy writer

Who or what has control of your life?
No, I'm not talking about your husband or wife.
Who or what tries to control your thoughts each day?
Do you do things you know are wrong, and also wrong to say?

It's so easy to give in to the flesh and serve the wrong master.
Our enemy, Satan, knows how to guide us into a disaster.
He can make wrongs look okay and permissible, it's true.
It could be in a major decision or just the little things we do.

Satan's whole objective is to get us off course whenever he can.
He knows just how to tempt every girl, boy, woman and man.
But, as Christians, we have the Holy Spirit guiding us through life.
Obeying the Holy Spirit will always eliminate or reduce our strife.

So, today let us all make a commitment to listen to that quiet inner voice.
When temptations come our way, we always have a choice.
When we do something that we know is wrong, Satan laughs at me and you.
Let's please Jesus today, and be conscious of everything we say and do.
