"In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king's men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem. One evening David got up from his bed and walked around on the roof of the palace. From the roof he saw a woman bathing."
2Samuel 11:1-2
The keyword here is Saw. How many times have you seen something and sinned? Can't think of anything? Okay let's try this:
Girls, How many times have you seen one of your friends wear something, that you really liked, and even wished and thought to yourself "Aww, why does she have that, and i don't" Hmmm how about now?
How about when you see a pretty girl, that is dressed nice and formal, and then all of a sudden a thought comes up in your mind saying 'She thinks, she's better then you'
OH got you there didn't i?
Yup, you see everyone sins through there eyes. Now just because everyone does it, it doesn't mean that your not going to prevent from something like that to happen.
How?
Simple, Keep your eyes set on God. Yes! it's just like that. If you keep your eyes focused on Him, Your not even going to notice when the devil tries to distract you! Because your so into God!
Remember "Be careful little eyes what you see, oh be careful little eyes what you see.
For the Father up above, is looking down at you. Oh be careful little eyes
I so agree Debora! It was amazing, how much I carried this before. I was the one who ended up with low-self esteem, and upset because I would compare myself with others and think, ''Is she better than me?'' you know, only setting our eyes on God can help us focus on what is important this life.
