I saw in the news today that Haiti is having a terrible problem with garbage. I am sure they have had garbage like this before, but the news people are appalled at it. When asked, one man commented that they are used to it. It is normal. In most poor countries, they become immune to the garbage or the litter.
This is how sin is. Little by little, garbage is allowed in. One thing then another, until it is filthy and you don't even notice. Here in Tanzania and in the states, filth in the media, magazines, billboards and on the streets, is becoming normal. We get immune to it and don't even get shocked by it. It becomes the norm.
Don't allow sin or bad influences in your life to become the "norm." Keep the Word of God in your mouth, mind and in your life. Keep your eyes from evil and your life from filth.
