We can truly say the Arizona tragedy is the result of evil. Evil is what separate us from God. I’m reading a book by Dr. Carolina Leaf “ Who Switched Off My Brain? Controlling toxic thoughts and emotions.” “ Toxic thought can become physically, emotionally or spiritually dangerous.”
If we are dwelling in the Lord we can truly say, “I will fear no evil”. As I watch the news of the tragedy in Arizona my heart goes out to the victims, their family, the shooter and his family.
A large part of the pain of life comes from the haunting fear of evil, our lives are full of supposes. Suppose this happen, suppose it happen to me, suppose, and suppose this… I started asking questions. Suppose a shooting like this happen in SC, where I shop or work? What do I do and how can I bear the thought of seeing people dying around me? Then I thought about how evil can separate me from God. With these kinds of thoughts I will easily separate myself from God and forget how he is my Shepard in the moments of fear. Psalm 23. Sometime we need to stop for a moment and know that God is in our lives and we will dwell in Him. We will not fear evil. Because we have made the Lord our refuge, the most High our habitation, no evil shall befall us. No scourge shall come near out tent. (Ps 91:9-10) Evil can attack us, but nothing can come near our soul while we are dwelling in God.
