Loves Violence

  • not tame, savage, fierce

In the age of video games and powerful personal computers, I tend to a get attracted to games that are violent such as Crysis, Quake, Unreal Tournament, etc.  The one theme those games have is to kill each other.  It’s the same with the movies and TV shows I’ve been watching.

And I’m suppose to find that fun and exciting. I can rationalize it by saying it’s for the “story” or for the technical aspect of it.  They’re still not tame.  They’re still tapping into my savage and fierce self.  My state of mind becomes more agitated and unloving.

This is a timely devotion.  I need this right now.  God, please keep controlling me.  Put me in my right place: in your loving arms.  Show me the right way.  Tame me.  Make me more civilized and kind.  Put my mind at ease at all times.  Thank you for your guidance.  Amen.

For people will be… brutal…

2 Timothy 3:2-3
