In that day, the Lord will punish with his sword—his fierce, great and powerful sword—Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent; he will slay the monster of the sea.

We fear the dark. We fear the Bogeyman. We fear the ghosts in the closet. Even when we're lying comfortably in our warm beds we fear. We're told none of them exist but we know better. We've seen them. We've battled them. We've been injured.
And...they're lurking around to battle us again...
The ghost may be divorce, or cancer, or sin. It doesn't matter...it scares us. The battles in our past cast an ominous shadow over our future. But the future is even worse. We know the outcome of past struggles but future battles might kill us.
In the day of God's eternal city he will kill the ghosts forever. Everything we fear will by wiped away. Can we hang in there until then? I think so...
Live boldly out there today...
