Eye Candy

So I posted a tweet today that stated the following..@ChristinaFaith: Just rode pass a fly dude my flesh wants to look more but my Spirit keeps me focused and says nahhh no entrance for the enemy!

One of my friends replied “is it that serious Chris? Try thanking God for the eye candy and for the wisdom He gave you to know that’s all it can be for now. sheesh!” Her comment made me think. She asked if it really was that deep and at first I thought in my mind. “Girl you have no idea”. However; at the time I could not articulate why it was so important not to look.

Living a pure life is challenging. Your ability to remain firm increases however; your tolerance decreases.

I thought and pondered my friends comment. I began to think what “EYE CANDY” really is. While at Bible Study tonight Brother Zeke mentioned something about candy and it popped in my mind.

Too much candy can make your teeth rot. For me a little bit of candy can entice my desire for more sugar and that sugar has the ability of spoiling my appetite for the Lord and stopping me from enjoying the incredible joys of my husband.

I realize I don’t want candy. I want a nutritious meal that only the Lord can give me through my husband. So this is my encouragement to you. Stay away from the eye candy. It can rot your teeth (SOUL).

p.s. While looking for photos pertaining to EYE CANDY I primarily found photos of women in seductive poses and clothing….food for thought!
