My biggest enemy is my ego. When I am abiding in Jesus Christ and walking in His light, the variety of forms with which my ego can disguise itself in order to distract me are seemingly infinite.
Even though I know they are only illusions, the source of their power is always residing within me as a desire. It may simply be my curiosity or inquisitiveness for discovering something interesting and intriguing, but the objects of my diversion are always of this world.
I pray for a pure heart so that these seductive and fascinating thoughts have nothing to which they can attach themselves and draw me away from my conscious awareness of the Lord’s presence.
