What is Evil?

     Evil humiliates us and degrades us. Evil is a stepping down from our humanity. The actions of evil pours out of our weaknesses. It lessen our power and lessen our hope. Evil destroys our world and our very selfs. It brings us back down into the dust.
     Evil slithers around in the dark sneaking up and taking hold. It devours it, it consumes our goodness. It teaches us that we are bad. Evil lies to us and cheat us out of our happiness. It befriends no one but controls many. It does as it pleases and has no regrets.
     Evil darkens our world and blackens our hearts. It pushes out the light from our souls. It tempts us and talks us into badness. It walks into hell and it brings many of us with it. Evil does not die but lives to kill. Evil sends many to the grave without any hope.
     From one end of the Earth to the other it has made itself known. Like a consuming fire it has spread all over our world. Mothers, fathers and their children live in fear when evil comes to their town. It knocks on everyones door in hope that someone will answer. Answer someone will and become consumed by it.
     Twisted minds and twisted souls it leaves behind looking for others to do it's will. Like burnt out logs in a forest fire, peoples souls become. It cares not for anyone for it has no heart and it has no soul. It is an open door to darkness and to sorrow.
     The sun blackens and even the moon gives out no light, when evil comes to visit. The hearts and minds of those who it touches turns cold as death. The warmth of the day and the peace of the night is not within their grasp. Cold days and tormented nights is what they know. Evil grows the hunger and increases the pain until it is unbearable. Hopelessness and despair becomes a well traveled road. Each day becomes the same as the last.
     Evil blinds us and makes us it's slave. Chains of sin it puts upon us and with guilt it weighs us down. Evil tortures our minds and ties up our hearts. It suffocates our soul until we are almost dead. It puts us in a dark room without doors or windows. It tells us there is no way out. It feeds upon us night and day until we no longer exist.
     Unrelenting it is in what it wants, more souls to the fire. No man or woman is immune from its touch. Everyone must fight to keep it at bay. The weak in spirit will surrender and the strong will fight to push it away. Once defeated it will return to fight another day. It is a struggle for our life and for our love.
     Evil wins and it loses but it does not matter. It exist so to hunt it's prey. Like a wolf upon the sheep it preys upon us. It feeds upon our fears. Parasitic in nature it destroys the host. Run and hide we can do but it will find us. Face it and fight it we must do to keep it away.
     God help us and protect us from evil. Cleanse our bodies and our souls. Deliver us from temptation and deliver us from evil. Holy spirit come into our mind and soul. Strengthen our spirit so that we can fight evil and push it away. God come into our lives and guide us into the light. Open our eyes so that we can see and open our hearts so that we can love. Forgive us of our sins and continue to show us your love. In Jesus Christ name
I pray. Amen.
