Proverbs 4

Today I chose Proverbs 4:14-15 which reads: "Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evil men. Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way." Some people think it is okay to get close to evil or skirt the edge. An example would be what we watch on television. If you watch nothing but violent programming you become numb to it and it becomes a normal thing. If you watch nothing but sexual or sensual programming eventually you will want to do the same things they are doing on the screen. The and of verse above says "turn from it and go on your way." Good advice. Being in the presence of evil or sin eventually brings us down to that level.
