Distractions and Over-reactions.

Greetings Brother Awareness,
Another way of putting it:
Institutions become the whore for they take on a life of their own. Our hearts can become whorified too when they shift their focus from our Lord to idols such as men run institutions. The flesh is hard to shake off considering that we are wrapped in it.
The leading of The Spirit is where we lose it. If we are not lead by The Spirit in everything we do, we are being led by our flesh.
Lee may have been a distraction just as anything can be. But we as individuals bear the responsibility not to be distracted.
We as individuals can only be distractions and should always understand and never forget it. C.S. Lewis drove that point home and this is the main front of the battle we are fighting.
Grace to all men!
Don
