Saturday 19 Little Eyes, Little Ears

You probably remember this song from preschool. Oh be careful little ears what you hear,…… It goes on to say, oh be careful little eyes what you see, for the Father up above is looking down in love, oh be careful little eyes what you see. It is very important if we want to remain pure and undefiled to guard our eyes and our ears. What goes in is what comes out. It is truly easy to see that in operation with kids. They do what they have seen others do. If parents are “cussers”, or are known to swear, even if you tell them not to cuss, they probably will. If you fill your eyes with impure images, that is what will be rolling around in your head all the time. So how can you guard your eyes and your ears? Wear eye guards and ear plugs!??? No, you watch what goes in them! Listen to things that are edifying. Watch things that are educational or entertaining without images that defile your life. Determine your boundaries, and make sure family members know them. Keep satellite channels safe and secure by not allowing contaminated programming into your home. Put safeguards on your computer so that kids don’t see or go to places on the web that they shouldn’t. Make your home secure, not just with lock on the doors, but with safeguards that guard your family’s life from being defiled by the world. It is worth every ounce of effort it takes to accomplish, because we want to be careful what little eyes and ears, see and hear. Most of all, live purity in front of your family. Let them follow you, like you follow Christ!
