Musing – Which Wolf Wins?

Hebraic Musing – Which Wolf Wins?

One evening a Cherokee Indian told his grandson about a battle going on inside him: "My son, it is between two wolves. One is evil: Anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is good: Joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
The grandson thought about it and asked his grandfather, "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee replied, "The one that I feed."

How are the two forces inside of us fed?  They feed on whatever we are thinking.

   Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy;
            without holiness no one will see the Lord.
    See to it that no one misses the grace of God
            and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.    NIV Heb. 12:14-15 

Point to ponder

What are we thinking about when studying our Bible?

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and Yeshua HaMashiach
