The Monster under my bed!

                              Okay, many of you might be saying something like, "WHOA! A monster under your bed? Really? What's he like?" But I don't mean that kind of monster. I mean the one that creeps up on you...the one who invades your; thoughts, actions, and sometimes, your emotions as well. He may not always be there, but he still comes about, hunting you as his next victom, because quite sadly, he does have victories. He's the one who gives you nightmares at night, from an experience during the day, or from an unpure thought, from a chance encounter or misfortune. You know what I mean? That's why I call this post, "The monster under my bed." It's satan. Waiting secretly for you; under the bed at night, under your brain during the day, under your emotions, and e.t.c. Now, what comforts a child most, when he or she thinks there is a monster under his or her bed? Can you take a guess? You're right, it's the assurance of his or her's mom and dad. You feel as if nothing can harm you, as long as they are there to protect you. It's the same way with God. When you're having a bad day, and your emotions are running wild, or you're experiencing a nightmare, from watching something scary, or even impure thoughts about something or someone...call out to God, like you would your mom and dad. He's there to protect you as long as you let Him. He's your loving father who loves and cares for you. And He's the only one who can protect you from the, monster under your bed, the only one who can save you from the nightmare to come...Hell. Cry out to your God...your father, and He will save you from harm. I hope you take comfort in the verse below. Have a great evening as you bask in God's great love and protection for you!
