For the land has become defiled, therefore I have brought its punishment upon it, so the land has spewed out its inhabitants.This fascinates me. When I think about my sins, I sometimes think about the effect it can have on the people around me, but not the things. I don't think in terms of defilement, of making something unholy just be being around it when committing sin.
How would I live my life differently is this was my mindset? Most people's sin doesn't notably affect others, so we tend to excuse it a bit more. But what if I were to think about a sin as spiritually polluting my desk, my bed, my clothes? If I had the kind of respect for my environment that I do for others, how would that change my attitude about the things that I do wrong?
