You are, what you eat!

I’m not here to talk about proper physical dieting habits, or rebuke those double cheeseburger eaters. The double mocha java with extra whip cream drinkers can relax. However the saying is true, especially when it comes to our spirit. Statistics indicate that the average American will see over 9000 sexual situations on television per year, almost all of which will be illicit encounters. Will watching hundreds of hours of illicit sex, violent behavior, greed, crime and life without God effect us? Without a doubt it will and not in a good way. As Christians, do we fall into the same category or should we strive to be different? The Church is “the called out ones”, do we discipline ourselves to become separated from these dangerous “eating” habits or do we feel we can handle it? We must put off the “old things” and put on the “new things”, or we will, sooner or later, whether you want to believe it or not, become what we eat...
