SATAN,
INFLUENCE OF

ONE day a woman bought a very, very expensive dress. When she brought it home and her husband found out how much she spent on it, he said, “Why in the world would you buy that expensive of a dress? You know we can’t afford it.”

The woman looked at her husband and said, “But honey, you don’t understand, the Devil made me do it! I tried it on and the Devil said to me, ‘You look awesome, girlfriend, in that dress. That’s you all over, you got to have that dress.’ ”

“Then why didn’t you tell the Devil to ‘get thee behind me, Satan’?”

His wife said, “I did tell the Devil to ‘get thee behind me, Satan.’ And he went behind me and told me I looked good there too.”

You just can’t get rid of Satan. He’s everywhere and he’s got a good argument waiting and ready for every situation you face.811
