EDGAR travels to Derby (so does Satan)!
Of course, whenever we aim to push back Satan’s kingdom, we shouldn’t be surprised by his attacks. And so it was. After our Friday evening care group, we were sitting at the front of the church keeping an eye on Edgar. I decided to leave for a minute to fetch something, and upon my return, I found that someone had slashed the ropes holding him up, and then the base with a knife. Edgar came crashing down, but not by the rock cut out without hands. The next night, some young people came and stole all the cash from my wife’s purse. Then, on my way back to Broome, a 4WD harassed us by driving past, turning off its lights and swerving all over the road. The last straw was our TV being stolen from the church. Praise the Lord, we thought, we must be doing something right.
