They defiled themselves by their evil deeds (Psalm 106:39; NLT).
My experience shows that those who plant trouble and cultivate evil will harvest the same (Job 4:8; NLT).
“They have planted the wind and will harvest the whirlwind” (Hosea 8:7; NLT).
Lord,
Help us to understand that
When we defile another person
In body, mind, heart, or soul,
We defile ourselves as well.
When we degrade another person
In body, mind, heart, or soul,
We degrade ourselves as well.
When we damage another person
In body, mind, heart, or soul,
We damage ourselves as well.
And when we destroy another person
In body, mind, heart, or soul,
We destroy ourselves as well.
