Be alert! {Scripture and a Snapshot}

"Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." 1 Peter 5:8 (NIV)

"Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would like nothing better than to catch you napping." 1 Peter 5:8 (MSG)

I took this picture of Brennan waiting anxiously to see where the batter would hit the next pitch. He was alert and ready in case the ball came his way. The way he was anxiously watching the batter made me think of the way we should be alert at all times. I couldn't decide which translation of 1 Peter 5:8 I liked better so I chose both.
