Avoiding

This morning I was reading my Bible in 2 Timothy 3. About the last days, and the kinds of people who will be around. There was a fly buzzing around. I hate flies. Last night one was flying around the family room. I told Eric I thought they were from the pit. He laughed, and then he said before the fall they had a different purpose. That since they eat dead stuff God would have created them to do something else. This is something that I look forward to learning about. Flies???

So one of the verses I was just reading came to mind. Verse 5 says "Avoid such people". That sounds like something I should DO. Not think, but DO. I don't believe that I should feel trapped by my circumstances (harassed by the fly from the pit), but I should look for what I can do. So 30 seconds later I dumped the dead fly in the trash, and I thanked God for the reminder that there is a time for action!
