Matthew 6:22-23
Your eye is a lamp for your body. A pure eye lets sunshine into your soul. But an evil eye shuts out the light and plunges you into darkness. If the light you think you have is really darkness, how deep that darkness will be!Everything your eyes see is processed by your mind and then converted into words, images, concepts or ideas. These images or ideas are either true or false, so as we set our eyes upon things we ought to be picky. 2 Samuel 11:2 teaches us that, “Late one afternoon David got out of bed after taking a nap and went for a stroll on the roof of the palace. As he looked out over the city, he noticed a woman of unusual beauty taking a bath.” This was the beginning of King David's darkest days. He set his eyes onto something that he should never have seen which then led to him allowing the darkness to come that he thought would bring him happiness. Be careful of what you see, your decision making might be altered and you could have many regrets in the future. Do you look away when your eyes are set upon things that you know are not good for you?
