A Covenant with the Eyes

[78 words]

Job said, “I have made a covenant with my eyes; why then should I look upon a young woman?” (Job 31:1). Long before the internet and smartphones, Job understood that purity begins with what we choose to look at. Sin often enters through the eyes before it settles in the heart. Guarding our eyes helps guard our thoughts, words, and actions. Every Christian should determine beforehand to pursue purity and honor God in both mind and body.
