LEAVE IT ALONE!

As Edie and I were getting ready to go on the retreat, she told me the neatest example of how sin can grow on you, when you start bothering with it! She noticed, that she had a "zit" forming on her chin, so she started fooling with it, to make it go away.......The only thing that happened, though,was it grew bigger and uglier, and more noticeable. If she had just left it alone, to begin with, it would have gone away!
Isn't that the truth? Sin does the same thing......... It pops up on us, and we start to fiddle with it(instead of leaving it alone), and before we know it, it gets bigger and bigger, and almost takes us over, with a full blown "bad sin".(They're all bad,I know!) If we would have left it alone, in the first place, it would have disappeared at the very beginning, and left no trace! Why don't we learn?
