RATHER an unequal contest, perhaps my reader will say, three against one, in the snow battle about to take place. Two girls and a dog on the one side, and a single boy on the other. Fortunately, they are what we may call friendly foes, who are eager to try their skill in driving off the enemy. It is not, however, always the case that numbers win the day, and doubt not here but that the boy will come off the victor.
But the girls have one thing in their favor, they know that mischief is brewing, and they are on the watch to resist or oppose it.
Sometimes we may have an enemy at work against us and not know it, then how easy it is for us to be tripped up. Do you know of one enemy who is ever active, always working behind the scenes to bring about evil?
It is Satan who has been man’s enemy ever since he tempted Eve in the garden of Eden, but what good news to know that there has been one, the Lord Jesus, on this earth who has been able to destroy the power of Satan, and deliver all those who had been subject to his bondage.
