Thought and Reflection

Is it important for you to be pure? How important is it for you to be righteous? For David, who had experienced the elation of sharing an intimate holy relationship with God and the utter pain of miserably failing God, guarding his heart was of vital importance. 

He did not want to be part of the evil. He did not want to be attracted to it. He did not want to be part of the people who were guilty of such vile acts. He refused to eat at the feasts and luxuries. What can we ask God to withhold from us in order to protect us from evil?
