Prodigal: We’re sitting for a spell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Me: Remember not all will rest when you are resting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is from the book What Luther Says: An Anthology, Vol 1 by Ewald Plass<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The devil takes no holiday; he never rests. If beaten, he rises again. If he cannot enter in front, he steals in the rear. If he cannot enter at the rear, he breaks through the roof or enters by tunneling under the threshold. He labors until he is in. He uses great cunning and many a plan. When one miscarries, he has another at hand and continues his attempts until he wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalms 42:2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
