Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with renewed awareness:

“…the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.”
(Ephesians 2:2)

It’s never just me, is it, Jesus?

When I sin, I think it’s my idea.
I believe it’s my choice.

I’m just being me, doing what I want to do.
This is who I really am.

No. It’s not.

I’m being manipulated by the evil one.
His suggestions are being subtly intermingled with mine.

So long as I’m unaware of that, I’m his pawn, aren’t I?

But You’ve just reminded me, Holy Spirit.
Thank You.
