Passage: Proverbs 12:11*

He who tills his land will have plenty of bread, but he who pursues vain things lacks sense.

Question

What is your most precious commodity?

 

Practical help

This proverb has pretty broad application but let's narrow it down to time and pornography. When we come into this world our life has some ordained number of seconds and then we're off to a stint in the grave. Then we'll wait, either hopefully or nervously, for Jesus Christ to raise us up. (If you're hopeful, praise God. If you're nervous, click here.)

You can waste those precious seconds feeding vain lusts at the porn trough — a place where the more you feed the hungrier you get — or you can value your life's seconds for what they are — finite; to be used only once.

It just doesn't make sense to waste precious life viewing porn.
