Thank you Doug Faires for stepping in for Patrick today and speaking to us about "Who is our Enemy?".
There are evil, bad and unholy forces working against us everyday and we need to be there for each other to help fight those evil forces.
1. Who is our enemy? THE DEVIL!
2. Who is NOT our enemy? God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
3. Don't become friends with the world.
4. Don't become attached to your blessings.
He also reminded us of the old dramatic series "Hill Street Blues" where the watch commander would always remind his guys "Hey, let's be careful out there!". And it's good words for us to remember too.
