Only

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy;
 I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
John 10:10
 
Interesting words Jesus spoke to be sure!
Not only did He say that the enemy comes only to steal and kill and destroy but He identifies him as a thief.
Now I don’t know about you but that verse alone makes it clear who is for you and who is against you.
It should also make it clear who you would benefit most from being around.
If you spend your time around a thief, you better hold onto everything.
He may present himself as your friend in order to gain access but once he has that access, he is not going to bring you abundant life!
There is a friend, scripture tells us, who sticks closer than a brother.
The Lord, we are also told, in Psalm 72:18 only does wondrous things.
So here is your choice when it comes to who to spend time with:
One who only comes to steal, kill and destroy
Or
One who only does wonderful things and gives us life to the full!
  I never said it was a hard choice.
Any questions?
