Satan sent me magazines

02.15.2011 by juliegumm@yahoo.com //

Remember how I said that part of my avoid-temptation-strategy with the no-shopping challenge was to stop reading fashion magazines?

Look what showed up in my mailbox today.

Seriously!

At first I thought it was a mis-deliver, but the address label has my name and address on it. CRAZY!

On a side note I have the best friend ever! Remember the hat?

Stacey showed up at my door several days later with said hat! She rocks!

    Perfect title Julie =o) I think us Christians tend to underplay Satan and how crafty he is. People like to only give him credit for bid disasters that cause a lot of physical and emotional harm but forget that he only needs to distract us just enough to get us off track. It doesn’t always have to be a major crisis and he will use other Christians or in your case what would seem like “harmless” magazines.

    The hat is awesome by the way I see you are enjoying it. Is there a male version? I really think Mark needs one lol.
