Some days !

There is a song that Dire Straights sings about being the ball or the bat, bug or the windshield...in this instance, the cat or the dog.
On any given day in our house we will have a fight between Chino the small dog and BFC the Big Fat Cat. If Chino was big enough there wouldn't be anything he would like more then to sit on BFC very much like this dog on that cat. Chino is smaller then the cat but he does not know that. She is his ultimate prize but the most elusive yet. She holds her own, growls, swipes, runs away and Chino will sit there growling advancing...whatever it takes to show that he can take her whenever he would decide.
I have been reading in Romans when Paul has this kind of wrestling match with himself, the evil that fights and the good that wants to win. If you are a cat person...the good represents the cat. If you are a dog person...yep...that furry brown dog sitting on that cat is good winning over evil. Every day we have the opportunity to sit on or be sat on. Paul goes on to say when we have the Spirit of God living in us we can always be sitting on...rather then being sat on. BFC or Chino? In the animal world it would be nice if they all got along...in the spiritual world...we had better be fighting!
