Sodm, Gomorrah and McGregor

Genesis 19:13 "For we are about to destroy this city completely.  The outcry against this place is so great it has reached the lord, and he has sent us to destroy it."

At Men's Retreat in McGregor this weekend I was hit with the seriousness of sin.  Sin breaks God's heart, changes who I am, and affects everyone around me.  Like a stone thrown in a lake, sin ripples out and touches everyone I know.  I may think it's my life, and these are my choices, but my sin impacts all I know. I realized that I don't hate sin enough.  I don't take it seriously enough.  I don't do enough to root it out of my life.  God takes it seriously-so seriously he destroyed two towns because of it.  Today, how I can I attack sin in my own life?  How can I purge evil in my life and thwart temptation.  God give me the strength to do so today!
