Snake's on the loose

If you live in Florida, or are at least slightly familiar with the influx of non-native species therein, you will recognize the seriousness of the increase in the python population located in the Everglades. I say all that to make you start considering the potential, and possibly fatal, impact these serpents might have on surrounding areas. Why am I bringing this up to you? Well, apparently a security guard in Bali, Indonesia was killed by one while another guard watched.

I know, I know, it sounds hard to believe. I mean, if you saw someone being slowly suffocated by an enormous, cold-blooded killer, a scaly, slithery snake, wouldn't you do something about it? Perhaps you have guessed where I am going with this? Friends, this world is full of serpents; it has been invaded by these death bringers, these life suffocating vermin.

The enemy and his minions are far more invasive than we realize and while we shake our heads at the thought of watching someone die a slow death, we do it every day! I want you to think about the people you know that are sexually immoral, addicts, liars, thieves, greedy, selfish, full of any iniquity you can imagine, and then realize that each one of those improprieties is a snake slowly stealing life breath from those people as you watch!

So, before you go pointing fingers at the guy in Bali who watched a co-worker die, realize that you're equally guilty and that if you don't do something then the results will be the same. People will die and, as the CNN article points out, "The python remains on the loose..."
