One evening an old man told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, “My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all.
One is Evil – It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good – It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which wolf wins?”
The old man simply replied, “The one you feed.”
Which wolf are you feeding now?

*WE WILL HAVE TO FIGHT EVERY DAY TO OVERCOME THE EVIL*
I have a small nugget for you:
*Jesus has said that we should love and pray for those who hate us. With the help of the Holy Spirit we can do so. That is the only goodness that we can count on. But He never said that we should surrender to them.*
