Philippians 4:8-9 says "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you."
One evening an old Red Indian man told his grandson about a battle that goes on in every person. He said, “My son, the battle is between two ‘wolves’. One is evil — it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is good — it is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”
The grand son thought for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf wins?”
The old Red Indian simply replied, “The one you feed.”
Need I say any more?
Let’s start feeding the good wolf, that we might flourish for the Lord and do great things for Him! There’s so much work to be done!!
