The flesh, the eyes, the boastful pride of life

Jump to Comments

Lately, I’ve been look­ing to upgrade things: clothes, my com­puter & a new cell phone. I’m find­ing that techno-lust is exactly that: lust. It’s dis­sat­is­fac­tion with what I have now paired with the incor­ri­gi­ble belief that the next new thing will make me happy.

It is dif­fi­cult to live sim­ply! It is dif­fi­cult to sim­ply live. How do you cope?

    The upgrad­ing is not the prob­lem. The prob­lem here is the con­di­tion of the heart. If in your heart of hearts you real­ize that this is not in line with what God would have you to do, then you do not do it. TYou see lust is a veryb strong term. Lust has in its inher­ent mean­ing that char­ac­ter­isitic that makes you so inwardly desirous of some­thing because it will gar­nish you more than you orig­i­nally bar­gained for. More women, more power, more glory, more recog­ni­tion, more sta­tus and more o fthose that things that oth­ers have that I want. Then, I will ahev really made it! In a nut­shell, what is in your heart. You know.
