I have a ton of music and this doesn’t surprise anyone who knows me for more than a day. I had some chores to deal with today so rather than trying to load cds individually I just grabbed a dvd with a few hundred songs not really caring what was on it. As I went about taking care of business a song came on I hadn’t heard in eons.
I found myself humming “one thing leads to another” by some band from the 80s called The Fixx. A phrase caught my ear…”when the wrong word goes in the right ear, I know you’ve been lying to me”. I actually stopped what I was doing long enough to hear this because it was important. Why? Again, I say because it was important.
We all have loved ones, friends, acquaintances or co-workers. So many we know are living day to day without faith or hope there is more then what we see here on earth. Even if they have an inkling of truth the enemy snatches away this tiny crumb every chance he gets. Just think about the moments we ourselves are feeling at our most vulnerable; isn’t this the point we start to hear doubt or fear? Now imagine when that enemy slinks up next to us in the guise of friendship to whisper a wrong thought helping us to agree with our own down trodden situation.
I can only understand this well because I was once used to speak that wrong thought into the right ear….
