Do Not Let Others Stray

Scripture Deut 27:18 ‘Cursed is the one who makes the blind to wander off the road.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’

Observation: I read this and think of all the cults that are out there. When I went to work today I saw a book about Mormons a religion that has taken so many off the path of Christ. All the people that try to convert Christians with false religions they are all cursed and the ones that start and head up these cults are especially cursed. Our own actions can lead the blind to wander off the path, since if we proclaim to be Christians, but act contradictory. We don’t always need to point others away by preaching another religion, we can also make our relation to Jesus unappealing.

Application: I need to be a person others would like to be around. I need to live my life with peace and joy and compassion for others. I want people to look at me as being someone they would like to be with and then point them to Jesus telling them anything good you see in me is only because of my Lord and then introduce them to Him.

Prayer: Dear Lord I thank you for all you have done for me, for the way you took me out of the pit of despair. Now please use me to help the blind of this world find You and their way home.
