R u BUSY?

Satan called a worldwide convention of demons.
>
> In his opening address he said,
>
> "We can't keep people from going to pray."
>
> "We can't keep them from reading their holy books and knowing the truth."
>
> "We can't even keep them from forming an intimate relationship with their
> GOD."
>
> "Once they gain that connection with GOD, our power over them is broken."
>
> "So let them go to their prayers; let them have their covered dish
> dinners,
> BUT steal their time, so they don't have time to develop a relationship
> with GOD.."
>
> "This is what I want you to do," said the devil:
>
> "Distract them from gaining hold of their GOD and maintaining that vital
> connection throughout their day!"
>
> "How shall we do this?" his demons shouted.
>
> "Keep them busy in the non-essentials of life and invent innumerable
> schemes to occupy their minds," he answered.
>
> "Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, and borrow, borrow, borrow."
>
> "Persuade the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work
> 6-7 days each week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their empty
> lifestyles."
>
> "Keep them from spending time with their children."
>
> "As their families fragment, soon, their homes will offer no escape from
> the pressures of work!"
>
> "Over-stimulate their minds so that they cannot hear that still, small
> voice."
>
> "Entice them to play the radio or cassette player whenever they drive." To
> keep the TV, VCR, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their home and see
> to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays non-biblical
> music
> constantly."
>
> "This will jam their minds and break that union with God."
>
> "Fill the coffee tables with magazines and newspapers."
> "Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day."
>
> "Invade their driving moments with billboards."
>
> "Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, mail order catalogs, sweepstakes,
> and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering free products,
> services and false hopes.."
>
> "Keep skinny, beautiful models on the magazines and TV so their husbands
> will believe that outward beauty is what's important, and they'll become
> dissatisfied with their wives. "
>
> "Keep the wives too tired to love their husbands at night."
>
> "Give them headaches too! "
>
> "If they don't give their husbands the love they need, they will begin to
> look elsewhere."
>
> "That will fragment their families quickly!"
>
> "Give them disatractions to distract them from teaching their children the
> real meaning of life."
>
> "Even in their recreation, let them be excessive."
>
> "Have them return from their recreation exhausted."
>
> "Keep them too busy to go out in nature and reflect on God's creation.
> Send
> them to amusement parks, sporting events, plays, concerts, and movies
> instead."
>
> "Keep them busy, busy, busy!"
>
> "And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and
> small talk so that they leave with troubled consciences."
>
> "Crowd their lives with so many good causes they have no time to seek
> power
> from GOD."
>
> "Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health
> and family for the good of the cause."
>
> "It will work!"
>
> "It will work!"
>
> It was quite a plan!
>
> The demons went eagerly to their assignments causing people everywhere to
> get busier and more rushed, going here and there.
>
> Having little time for their God or their families.
>
> Having no time to tell others about the power of GOD to change lives.
>
> I guess the question is, has the devil been successful in his schemes?
>
> You be the judge!!!!!
>
> Does "BUSY" mean: B -eing U-nder S-atan's Y-oke?
