Passage: Proverbs 4:14-19* 14. Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evil men. 15. Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way. 16. For they cannot sleep till they do evil; they are robbed of slumber till they make someone fall. 17. They eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence. 18. The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. 19. But the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble. Questions 1. How are porn sites like "the path of the wicked" mentioned in verse 2?   2. How are porn site operators like the people described in verse 16?   Practical help In case you didn't realize it, porn site operators don't have your best in mind. Today's passage suggests: • They lose sleep when you stand strong (verse 16). • (And, by implication, they turn in only when they've done you in.) • Their livelihood (bread and wine) depends on attracting you to violence (verse 17). Don't give in to these creeps. Stick to "the path of the righteous" instead (verse 18). Your life will brighten like the sun.
