Do not love the world or the things of the world. If anyone loves the world the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world - the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions - is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. 1 Jn 2:15-17

This is the verse that we just learned...how convicting is this? Wow! How often am I led or even controlled by the desires of my flesh and eyes?! I don't want to love the world or the things of it but, my flesh is drawn to it. Oh, how I need Jesus every minute!
