Sin is like a snake that wants to creep into our lives, then it always does what it's supposed to, it bites us. Maybe that's why God had sin first appear as a serpent. It weasels it's way into our lives, gets buried in, then never wants to let go, and always wants to take over our lives.
Sin wants to run our lives, and it's always in the wrong direction. Even when it all seems so good and right, if it's sin, it will lead to destruction, and even death. If God be fore us, who can be against us? What separate us from the love of God...nothing can. Nothing has the ability to, even for a moment.

The die to it diet!
So I feel like The Lord wakes me up this morning with the phrase in reference to a diet; Die To It. We have to crucify the flesh with it's passions, and most of us Love food! (Gal 5:24)
So if we are able to put to death our fleshly passions, then we will be able to focus on those things we actually should be passionate about, like feeding the starving, or taking care of orphans. God wants us to have passions, He just wants them to be just passions. Holy passions, blameless passions.
