I am sure that most have heard the story of how you can put a frog in water and he will sit there until his death? Well, just in case you have not, here is the story.
If you put a frog into water that is already boiling, the frog will jump right out immediately! however, if you put the frog in water that is room temperature, and then you very slowly increase the heat, the frog will sit there, not realizing what temperature the water has eventually become, and will boil right in the water.
Deceitful sin can be the exact same way. A little dabble here or there, thinking nothing long term can or will come out of it. However, you do not notice that you are getting slowly deeper and deeper, until that day when you try to come out but you cannot.
I encourage all of you to take inventory, ever praying that Jesus will let your spiritual eyes be opened so that you may see your sin in the eyes of Jesus, and not be slowly swallowed in the deceptive world of sin!
