This lovely thing - really is scarry

This really beautiful thing hides the danger (in the middle) of the spider. A dark, sneaky, creature that will emerge with lightning speed. It consumes anything that has fallen for the lovely lure that makes it's web shimmer like diamonds.


The world has traps like this. They are so enticing - we cannot possible imagine what lurks in them.

As we fall, we wonder how evil could have looked so good/it used all it's resources, all it's power to get us. It surely will be hard to escape.

Then the rope, the saving grace - why is it given to us so easily by one who is so powerful. We do not deserve this favor.

Only God needs no tricks = honesty, love, integrity...his power is so apparent. He needs no trap. Only truth and even that is hard for us to swallow...

Grace - free to all who accept HIS SON
