It seems that each week we can pick up a newspaper or watch the evening news
and find that someone in a place of honor and respectability has behaved
with dishonor and lost respect because of infidelity.


"Guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith with the wife of your
youth."
Malachi 2:15

Governors, congressmen, judges, pastors and many celebrities of every stripe
seem to think nothing of tossing aside their marriage vows in relationships
of passion with someone else.

In this period of the Old Testament, God was highly distressed at the number
of marriages ending in divorce. He told Malachi to have the people guard
themselves in their spirits. Yielding to temptation, after all, begins with
one thought at a time.

At the same time, God wants us to be faithful to Him. In that relationship
also, we must guard our spirits and not break faith. He, after all, remains
ever faithful to us.

Today, pray that our President will remain faithful in his marriage vows,
being one in the flesh and spirit with his wife.
