Be not hasty..

Ecclesiastes 8:3

Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.

Do you remember how you used to feel during your teenage days? You wanted to make your own decisions without anybody questioning you because you felt that you were matured enough to decide for yourself and at the end of the day when everything backfired you would feel like life was unfair to you. The reason for that was that you never thought things through and the decisions you took were only hasty ones. You either took them because of your friends or because you wanted to have a certain status.

That’s how most of the people are when they feel like they have the strength to take care of themselves because they’ve achieved certain achievements and they don’t need God for anything. What’s funny is that when everything backfires they go back to God. Don’t be hasty to go out of his sight because He is your Lord God. Don’t stand on evil things no matter what caused them because the only person you are abusing is you. Evil hurts. Just think of a person who is always thinking of evil thoughts that person is similar to a lifeless person because they don’t have any conscience. God loves us and that’s why He gave away His only begotten Son to die for us so that we can be saved.
