Day 14 Was This Your Life?

Day 14

Was This Your Life?

There are laws that say that if we commit adultery with any other person than our own spouse we will be punished.But Jesus says that even the slightest intention of looking at a girl with lust is a sin. To be faithful to our spouse with our body but not our mind is to break the trust so vital to a strong marriage.

Many young people today, make friends with the opposite gender very easily. It starts as friendship, then becomes love (usually infatuation) and finally becomes trouble. They even ignore the love of their parents for this friendship. Remember dear youth! If your so called lover doesn't know how to love his/her parents, then they will surely not know how to love you if you become his/her spouse.

Jesus says that the deliberate filling of one’s mind with fantasies will be evil if acted out.  But eventually your thought leads to action. So it is better to uproot it while its still just a thought. And remember first unintentional look at opposite gender, is not sin but the next one is sure to get you to sin.

Matthew 5:28

(CEV)  But I tell you that if you look at another woman and want her, you are already unfaithful in your thoughts.

 (Hindi) परन्‍तु मैं तुम से यह कहता हूं, कि जो कोई किसी स्त्री पर कुदृष्‍टि डाले वह अपके मन में उस से व्यभिचार कर चुका।

(Tamil OV)  நான் உங்களுக்குச் சொல்லுகிறேன்; ஒரு ஸ்திரீயை இச்சையோடு பார்க்கிற எவனும் தன் இருதயத்தில் அவளோடே விபசாரஞ்செய்தாயிற்று.

 (Telugu)  నేను మీతో చెప్పునదేమనగా - ఒక స్త్రీని మోహపుచుపుతో చూచు ప్రతివాడు అప్పుడే తన హృదయమందు ఆమెతో వ్యభిచారము చేసినవాడగును.

(Kan) ಆದರೆ ನಾನು ನಿಮಗೆ ಹೇಳುವದೇನಂದರೆ--ಒಬ್ಬ ಸ್ತ್ರೀಯನ್ನು ಮೋಹಿಸುವದಕ್ಕೆ ನೋಡುವ ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬನು ಆಗಲೇ ತನ್ನ ಹೃದಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಆಕೆಯ ಕೂಡ ವ್ಯಭಿಚಾರ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಾನೆ.

(Mal) ഞാനോ നിങ്ങളോടു പറയുന്നതുസ്ത്രീയെ മോഹിക്കേണ്ടതിന്നു അവളെ നോക്കുന്നവന്‍ എല്ലാം ഹൃദയംകൊണ്ടു അവളോടു വ്യഭിചാരം ചെയ്തുപോയി.
