Lying In Wait

The Devil is always waiting around for an attack, when one is most vulnerable.  It overwhelms the senses with fury and replaces reason with unfiltered emotion.  This is disaster in the making and disaster is what pleases the Prince of Darkness.  When the mind is closed to reason, discourse ensues.  When one is at the mercy of his unbridled passion, his temper will flair, then nothing gets accomplished.

Failure awaits the unbridled self but it does not have to come to pass.  As soon as one detects a hint of agitation, one must realize that he himself is no longer in control but the Devil.  In order to thwart Its plan, one has to resort to the prayers of the rosary, to enlist the assistance of the Blessed Virgin Mary to build a barrier to protect against the Devil's advances and Saint Michael the Archangel to battle Prince of Darkness and sent It back to Hell.
