STAYING AWAY
Today's reading: Job 1-2

"There was a man named Job who lived in the land of Uz. He was blameless, a man of complete integrity. He feared God and stayed away from evil." Job 1:1 NLT

Job stayed away from evil.

That's what I want as my goal for the new year...to stay away from evil.

To see it around me, and excuse myself. To hear of it, and exit the conversation. To watch as it innocently begins to snowball and break it up.

To do my part in living a godly life.

To refuse to participate in, propagate or please the part of me that desires to turn away from my Savior, Friend and Redeemer.
