Little foxes

Have you had those ah-ha moments when something so simple becomes so clear?  I had one of those today thanks to a colleague and her reminder made me realize that the devil comes to steal tender truths from our lives and destroy them while they are still growing. 

That made me think about this verse in Song of Solomon 2:15, "Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes."  I may be taking it a little out of context but I think what King Solomon was trying to tell us to do is to catch those little negative thoughts that creep in and stop them, because if we don't they will steal our precious fruit of love, joy and peace.  

Often in life we just need a little reminder to make a course corrections and when we do we can go back to our business and forget about the niggly things that are holding us back.  So if you've had thoughts that have run wild, make haste to catch that little fox and lock it away.
