#127 | The Arrow Called Pride

While we all sat quietly, I prayed, then I heard:

”I am sending you out to the next battlefield. You have fought with me and have not prevailed. You have now learnt that I am your God. Now brace up, I am taking you through another phase. It will be like a torrent, but trust in me and just obey. Just obey. Pick up your gears and prepare to face the enemy.”

Then I saw myself armed with a bow and a quiver full of arrows. It looked like I was shooting at the enemies from a watchtower. I shot the arrows skillfully, taking each enemy down with every shot.

Then I realized that I had been shot in the shoulder, and what was written on the arrow was PRIDE.

It seemed like the arrow had been there a bit long, but I was still able to shoot, even with the arrow in my shoulder. With time my arm grew weak, and I was unable to shoot with precision. The longer the arrow remained, the weaker the arm and this weakness began to spread to the rest of my body.

Then I heard:

”Be alert, so you won’t be taken unawares. The enemy is prowling, waiting for you to lose guard so he can take you out.”

I also heard:

”Be of cheer, and delight only in me, and I will give you peace all around.”
