How interesting that the Hebrew word for demon
שד
Is related to the word for fallow land
שדה בור
And battlefield, and minefield
And related to looted, robbed
שדדו
Evil is not using resources properly,
potential fruitfulness wasted,
through human means. It isn’t an accident.
It is
intentional or unintentional
mis-use of a gift from God.
Unintentionally
wasting your life
has the same result
as intentionally wasting it.
Not choosing
to be mindful,
to be a good steward
is to choose evil,
to allow it in.
