THE DEVIL'S IN THE MIDDLE

My good friend Dave Matthews exposed a powerful truth about satan in his song "The Space Between".  I have heard the song many times before but never noticed it before (mainly because its such a pretty song...)  

anyways, one of the last lines in the song goes like this..."The space between what's wrong and right is where you'll find me hiding waiting for you."

the grey-area, the fence, the middle, those things in our lives that we can justify and make it sound like its permissable when deep down we know we should or shouldn't do it!  This is along the same reason i think God considers lukewarm disgusting.  and also the same reason James encourages us to be decisive and not wishy-washy!  ...because if we allow too much grey-thinking or too much space between whats wrong and right - we will all find that it's very comfortable there.  Rarely do people get there feelings hurt, you can have your cake and eat it too!  But its not wise and the devil's lies destroy or at least water down our lives when we live in the middle.  Be decisive.  Don't justify things in or out of your life.  Do it or Dont do it!

what part of your life needs to get out of the middle?  is it right or wrong, period.
