What all does this verse include?<\/p>\n
“I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me”<\/font><\/b> (Psalm 101:3).<\/p>\n When I read verses like that one, my mind right away goes to books and music. (That’s not all that’s involved here, I’m sure.)<\/p>\n So much CCR (contemporary Christian reading) appeals to the flesh. That must be what sells. Will I consume it for the trace minerals it might add to my diet?<\/p>\n Ditto CCM (contemporary Christian music).<\/p>\n But I enjoy CCR and CCM!<\/p>\n Even so, it still shouldn’t cleave (that is, stick) to me.<\/p>\n No matter how much something appeals to me and not matter how much I enjoy something, God’s approval should matter more to me.<\/p>\n I truly need His help in living by that standard!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What all does this verse include? “I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me” (Psalm 101:3).
