..my battle stance..

sometimes you just wanna lie curled up in bed and shut your mind off. sometimes that's your only way of regaining your courage to get back into the fight the next morning. phew..... -___-"

This gem is worth revisiting times and again. What Satan put into the heads of our remote ancestors was the idea that they could “be like gods”—could set up on their own as if they had created themselves—be their own masters—invent some sort of happiness for themselves outside God, apart from God. And out of that hopeless attempt has come nearly all that we call human history—money, poverty, ambition, war, prostitution, classes, empires, slavery—the long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy. God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing. From Mere Christianity
