A Letter To The Devil

Satan,

          I must say it's been a while since we've been together hasn't it? I thought I'd write, though, so as to let you know why I've not been hanging out in the usual places. You see, I prayed  I know you told me not to but  I was lonely and you were not there, as usual. I prayed and the Heavenly Father listened ... something you said He wouldn't do. You lied to me  you said that following Him would remove any fun in life YOU LIED! I went to church even though you told me it would be boring  everyone there welcomed me. I learned things. More than you ever taught me. Your people used me; the Savior's people respected me- so much or your promise of popularity.

         I'll make you regret lying to me. All this time that has passed I could have lived  I could have lived. Instead I was blinded and followed you, so in place of fun I found despair, hatred, and pain  why didn't you tell me, why did you lie? The Lord of all tells me that you fear the weakest of all saints on their knees in prayer. So then are you afraid? How's it feel then, Satan? I was afraid for so longbow does it feel to be afraid? It's hard changing from evil to good, but through the Holy Spirit I can. One of my sins is hatred. So now then, monster ... have some of your own medicine.

          Satan! I'm coming for you, with the Creator in the lead, and there's no way out! You tricked me  ... WAR ... I declare WAR. I may be weak, you might kill my children, you might kill my wife, burn my home, and make me deathly sick, but I will never leave the Messiahs side. You hear me, Satan  never will I leave Him. Why? Because unlike you  He will never leave. I've begun telling the ones you've lied to the truth  truth, ha, back when you controlled my speech 'truth' was a bad word It's going to take some work but I'll become a warrior for the Messiah  a warrior, not a gimp like your followers. I've decided to follow the Word. You will never be more than second best, and as we all know, second best is the first loser.

          It's time for me to go now  do understand that everything you showed me is not forgotten, no none of it, not in the slightest. Now the war begins and in it I vanquish your powers through His Word. Instead of hurting everyone, now I comfort them ... and they comfort me. As for the hate, well, you gave it to me, monster  you can have it back ... in your face. Goodbye!


Sincerely,

The Weakened Saint
