Be Aware!

Here's just a short thought. I was having some issuses with my gallbladder a few weeks ago and my mom decided it's time to start eating healthy. Knowing my favorite is Oreos she brings home this Oreo yogurt (keeping in mind I'm no fan of yogurt). After eating this yogurt, I realized it was the worst thing I've ever tasted. It's like putting sprinkles on poop. (Okay maybe not that drastic but you get the point). I sat in the car next to my dad and just stared at this yogurt. Oreo yogurt. I looked at my dad and said "this is like the bad stuff in the world-it's covered by what we like."


Now think about that. The things that appeal to us in this world are usually underlying bad for us. Doesn't that apply to most everything? For example all them songs that talk about sex, drugs, and bad things usually have the catchiest lyrics or the best beat, am I right? The best tasting foods are the ones to give you diabetes or a heart attack. 

And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. (2 Corinthinans 11:14)

Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. (1 Peter 5:8)

I just warn you all to be aware of everything you do.  What songs you listen to. What books you read. Even the words you speak. You never know who it affects or what you're putting in your mind. Be Aware!
