"The wicked placed a trap for me,
but I did not wander from your commandments.
Your decrees are my inheritance for ever,
they are the joy of my heart:
my heart is set on carrying them out,
for ever, until the end."
- Psalm 118 (119): 110-112
Let's set aside the next 60 seconds to think: What kind of "traps" have the world set for me today?
Even a brief reflection will provide a list of things that tempt us away from God, whether it's in school, at work or at home.
Whether or not you set the minute aside earlier, take 10 now becoming aware of the things that draw us away from God. Awareness is half the battle. But when we're not even aware of the devil's presence, how do we expect to stop him?
