Staying Calm and Wise
I was pretty sure: I knew my husband’s problem. I knew what was causing him issues — the thing he couldn’t quite put his finger on… I also knew what would help him and change his ways.

As he did, as if I was sizing up a suspect, I noticed his cut-off sleeves, his see-through thin white shirt, his scruffy beard, hid tattooed arms and his body that was far too thin. Was he on drugs? I saw him dispose of something next to the sidewalk. What is he doing? Is there evidence he wants to get rid of? Suspiciously, I kept my eye on him, as he quickly ran off…back to his car.

Jesus warned us multiple times in the Gospels that our eyes can cause us to sin (Matthew 5:29; 18:9).
