Practical help
The world is a dangerous place. Sometimes we are unaware of the
"destructive" elements in and around our lives. Internet pornography will
destroy you from the inside. It will weaken your relationships with God and significant
people in your life. For the most part it is a hidden sin, but it is destructive none the
less. This psalmist asks for God's grace in providing him a refuge, a place of safety. God
offers the same security if you will come to Him. Come back tomorrow and we will read
further.
