A thought by Louie Giglio in his book, Winning the War on Worry  (p. 1). Thomas Nelson. Kindle Edition. (Click on the book title to go to Amazon to buy the book.)

Ok, that is interesting.

Louie says, "Worry is an Enemy tactic—a strategy built on lies that are designed to rob you of peace and tear your mind to pieces.

"That’s why it’s crucial that you are able to spot the Lies Worry tells."

He goes on, "Not long ago while on safari in South Africa, Shelley and I were really wanting to see a leopard in the wild. Early and late on our game drives our eyes were set on every tree limb, bush, grassy hill, and river path in hopes of finding one of several leopards that were known to frequent this particular area. But here’s the thing: leopards aren’t bright orange with tall, sparkly antennae on their backs. They are designed to blend into the surroundings, like the bark of a baobab tree where they might be lounging on one of its mighty branches.

"In the same way, the devil isn’t going to jump up and down in front of you shouting, 'Hey, I’m a liar, and everything I’m telling you right now is going to drain your life of joy!' No, he’s going to arrive more acceptably—in the form of worry. Because everyone worries, right?"

Louie then says, "To keep your adversary from blending into the scenery of your mind, you have to become adept at spotting the lies worry tells you."

So Louie is going to take us on a look at four lies. And that is going to be very profitable. Yes, yes! #continuethought
