THE DEVIL'S SECRET WEAPON

THE DEVIL'S SECRET WEAPON
There is an old-time fable that the devil once held a sale and
offered all the tools of his trade to anyone who would pay their
price.
They were spread out on the table, each one labeled -- hatred,
malice, envy, despair, sickness, sensuality -- all the weapons that everyone knows so well.
But off on one side, part from the rest, lay a harmless looking,
wedge-shaped instrument marked "DISCOURAGEMENT." It was old and worn looking, but it was priced far above all the rest.
When asked the reason why, the devil explained: "Because I can use this one so much more easily than the others. No one knows that it belongs to me, so with it I can open doors that are tight bolted against the others. Once I get inside, I can use any tool that suits me best.
Are you letting anyone discourage you? Or are you discouraging yourself?

Hope you have enjoyed this one also.
