read a humorous tale about a hunter who had his gun aimed at a large bear and was ready to pull the trigger. Just then the bear spoke in a soft, soothing voice, saying, "Isn't it better to talk than to shoot? Why don't we negotiate the matter? What is it that you want?" The hunter lowered his rifle and answered, "I would like a fur coat." "That's good," said the bear. "I think that's something we can talk about. All I want is a full stomach; maybe we can reach a compromise." So they sat down to talk it over. A little while later the bear walked away alone. The negotiation had been successful - the bear had a full stomach and the hunter had a fur coat!           Satan wants to bargain with you. He wants to know what you want and offers you a plan to get it... but it's always on his terms. Beware the bait lest you take a bite into the hook! Don't bargain with satan . . . he's the smoothest negotiator you will ever come up against!
