09/06/22 WHEN WINNING IS LOSING

Sometimes WINNING is the worst kind of losing.

I saw a video of a German Shepherd Dog saving one of his sheep from a raging river. The first part of the video looked like he was violently attacking another animal, at the rivers edge, in a full out assault. It looked like there would be nothing but blood and guts left. Then he was able to drag the drowning sheep to safety, where it ran to join the flock.

I cried. That is how a loving shepherd fights to rescue sheep that are being carried away by the enemy.

To the sheep, and outside observers, the rescue looked like a deadly attack. But that is how serious it is. Sometimes love seems vicious, cruel because the devil convinces victims and onlookers that the rescuer is their real enemy.

I cried because sometimes the victim, "WINS" the fight against the rescuer, only to be lost to the dark domain forever.
