The more bad choices you make, the less bad your choices seem.
I have been reading Redemption. It was about marriage but the story gives a lot of insights on how to live our Christians lives. How temptation births to sin, and when we make sinful choices, it is easier for us to make more sinful decisions.
“but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.”
James 1:14-15 NIV
In the story, the Holy Spirit prompts Tim, as well as Kari, on the things they are facing. While Kari decides to obey and hold on to God's promises, Tim ignores and soon it has dull his senses to what the Spirit is telling him.
It has reminded me about my reading in Proverbs yesterday.
1. “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
2. Keep your mouth free of perversity; keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
3. Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you.
4. Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.
5. Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.”
Proverbs 4:23-27
To be able to make right decisions, l need to guard my heart, keep corrupt talks far from my mouth, my eyes to look straight, to be careful and steadfast in my ways, and to keep my foot from evil.
Tonight, I was able to attend prayer meeting with YAM.
