"Like a shepherd He will tend His flock. In His arm He will gather the lambs; And carry them in His bosom" Isaiah 40:11 I find it completely awesome that in this world, I am totally someones. Someone to love me, cherish me, discipline me (in love), someone who will never, ever, ever, leave me. Someone who calls me His very own.

"They" - 10/25/13 - Matthew 21:28-22:33, Mark 12:1-27, Luke 20:9-40
"Try as they might, they couldn’t trap Him into saying anything incriminating. His answer caught them off guard and left them speechless." (Luke 20:26)
It is a guarantee - "they" will come - "they" will lay in wait - "they" will try and trip up -
"you" - The Vessel For God.
"They" will try to trap "you" - The Vessel For God.
"They" are those who will come to dislike or even hate, "you" - The Vessel For God.
"They" are those who do not like what they see in "you" - The Vessel For God - because it brings out the worst of "them".
"They" are those who refuse to see "you" - The Vessel For God - the way He has made "you" - reborn "in" Him.
"They" will always be around "you" - in your life's path - making sure "you" - The Vessel For God - know how "they" perceive "you".
"They" will always be there - to judge "you" - bully "you" - condemn "you" - try to change "you" back into what "you" were - sometimes dismiss and ignore "you" . "You" - The Vessel For God.
"They" and God - do not, can not, mix.
"They" are into serving "self" - not God.
In my encounters with "they" - I have found simply stepping back and not saying anything, often works more than if I were to speak. I have experienced time after time, when I let my Abba handle the situation - "they" haven't a leg to stand on. I have experienced time after time, when I stand on/in His Word, "they" back away from His Truth.
It amazes me how "they" become so overconfident "they" feel "they" are above God.
Thankfully, I am His. He is mine. I am covered by His Grace, Mercy, Forgiveness, through my Savior.
But.
Truthfully.
There are times.
I take on the characteristics of "they".
There are times when I fool myself that I am able to put "self" above God and live life "my" way. It is during these moments, time and time again, I fall into the traps set before me, from "self" or "they" or satin.
"Me" - A Vessel For God - have learned, it is only "in" Him, am "I" - A Vessel For God, able to stand firm against "they"........
"satan" .............
or "self".
