The Awareness of Evil . . .

On hot Summer days, our minds can easily think of Winter coolness. But consider . . .

Just about everyone of us 'Up North' people have been hit in the head with a slush ball (and yes, it hurts). Evil? No,

probably not but nasty at least.

So what then is evil? From the dictionary we learn that it is . . . morally bad; causing harm or injury to someone; [or] marked by bad luck or bad events.

And you are thinking . . . 'okay, I knew that, but why are we taking a look at this now?' Because if we don't slow down now and then to check our view as to what is evil? How do will we know if we have slipped off the mindset we wish and we are now on a slippery slope?

So do yourself a favor and review your awareness to the aspects of evil. Are you as we hope . .. seeing it? And if you are, what are you doing?

Even though

I walk through the darkest valley,

I will fear no evil,

for you are with me;

your rod and your staff,

they comfort me.

-Psalm 23:4
