I don’t watch a lot of T.V. but I happened to be watching the news one night when they gave a warning about the toxic Giant Hogweed. The very next day I was out walking with my camera, looking for pictures for my blog when I came across the culprit!

Had I not heard the warning I could have easily touched this toxic giant. When it comes in contact with skin it can cause severe burning and blistering and in worse cases, causes blindness.

Warnings can save us from a lot of danger, sorrow, and sometimes even death. The Word of God is full of warnings to spare us from the traps of the enemy. So many people see God as having a lot of rules, not realizing that He is warning us – to protect us!

Once we read the warnings, we have a choice to heed God’s advice or fall prey to the trap of the enemy. But what if we don’t know about the warning? This is exactly why it is so crucial to know the Word of God. God gave us His Word for protection and wisdom so we can be blessed.
