Don’t Get CARRIED AWAY……Col. 2:8
See to it [make sure] that no one carries you off [deceives you] as spoil or makes you yourselves captive
[CARRIED AWAY BY WHAT?]
by his so-called philosophy and intellectualism
and vain deceit (idle fancies and plain nonsense),
following human tradition (men's ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world),
just crude notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe
and disregarding [the teachings of] Christ (the Messiah).

Pray the Word
Lord, deception is so deceiving. We can hardly recognize it has happened until it has happened. I don’t want to get carried away with what I ‘think’ or ‘feel’ is right [from people, ideas, thoughts, circumstances or any other thing], but, give me the power to be more alert in my spirit to what would influence me away from Your teachings.

Thank you for reading my blog of thoughts, encouragement and instructions the Lord speaks about to me. It is simply my therapy to write down these things as I walk my journey out with Him. I would love to hear back from you. Each new day is a blessing! Dorothy
