Everyone has their weakness in life, and the main person that knows that weakness is the Devil and he will try to expose that weakness. 1 Peter 5:8-10 says
"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same suffering are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you."
Now when I say Life is a Chess game with the devil, I mean he sometimes use people as pawns in your life. When your defense is down he moves these pieces across the board and close to you, he then disguises these people into whatever he wants. Most the times these people carry a trait that is attached to one of your weaknesses in life, and these people start to prey on that weakness. Sometimes it might leave you in a state where you are not even aware of whats happening to you, and like a lion when its done with its prey, he leaves you for dead. God will attempt to save you, but you have to be able to acknowledge him, meaning you have to recognized what has happened. Some people do not even realize that the Devil has just feasted on them and they actually feel that God has punished them.
I have been in that state in my life, and it funny God brought back some people in my life to help me remember the place I was, before this pawn enter my life. Life a Chess game, they are always other pieces on the board that can help you defeat another piece.
