Hi Friends ... Hope you are in good health .... I read about an incident. It was a shocking tragedy. A 15-year-old boy was strangled by the
family’s pet. The slender youth had gone to an upstairs bedroom to play
with an 11-foot Burmese python. Nobody is sure how it happened, but the
supposedly tame snake turned into a killer that took the boy’s life.
Why play with a powerful snake that can turn into a horrifying agent
of death? Why even bring such a potentially dangerous creature into the
house? This news story changes the old adage “Don’t play with fire!”
into a flashing warning signal.
This warning applies even more to the hazard of playing with sin—some
“small” thing that seems merely to give pleasure without hurting
anyone. At first it seems harmless, but feed it, let it grow, take pride
in it, and a trifling sin can become a terrible tragedy that “brings
forth death”.
As believers in Jesus Christ, we must check even the smallest evil
the moment it springs up in our heart by confessing it to the Lord and
asking Him to help us overcome it. Toying with a pet sin is like playing
with a deadly pet. Sooner or later it will turn on us.
God bless you...Have a good day..
Continue to pray for the unreached as we step towards the Cross...
