2 Corinthians 2:11Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

The Holy Spirit comforts me.

Romans 1:18-27The Message Ignoring God Leads to a Downward Spiral18-23 But God’s angry displeasure erupts as acts of human mistrust and wrongdoing and lying accumulate, as people try to put a shroud over truth. But the basic reality of God is plain enough. Open your eyes and there it is! By taking a long and thoughtful look at what God has created, people have always been able to see what their eyes as such can’t see: eternal power, for instance, and the mystery of his divine being. So nobody has a good excuse. What happened was this: People knew God perfectly well, but when they didn’t treat him like God, refusing to worship him, they trivialized themselves into silliness and confusion so that there was neither sense nor direction left in their lives. They pretended to know it all, but were illiterate regarding life. They traded the glory of God who holds the whole world in his hands for cheap figurines you can buy at any roadside stand.24-25 So God said, in effect, “If that’s what you want, that’s what you get.” It wasn’t long before they were living in a pigpen, smeared with filth, filthy inside and out. And all this because they traded the true God for a fake god, and worshiped the god they made instead of the God who made them—the God we bless, the God who blesses us. Oh, yes!26-27 Worse followed. Refusing to know God, they soon didn’t know how to be human either—women didn’t know how to be women, men didn’t know how to be men. Sexually confused, they abused and defiled one another, women with women, men with men—all lust, no love. And then they paid for it, oh, how they paid for it—emptied of God and love, godless and loveless wretches.

Joy, peace, love, mercy, and the goodness of God.

Job’s Final Protest of Innocence31 “I made a covenant with my eyes not to look with lust at a young woman.2 For what has God above chosen for us? What is our inheritance from the Almighty on high?3 Isn’t it calamity for the wicked and misfortune for those who do evil?4 Doesn’t he see everything I do and every step I take?5 “Have I lied to anyone or deceived anyone?6 Let God weigh me on the scales of justice, for he knows my integrity.7 If I have strayed from his pathway, or if my heart has lusted for what my eyes have seen, or if I am guilty of any other sin,8 then let someone else eat the crops I have planted. Let all that I have planted be uprooted.9 “If my heart has been seduced by a woman, or if I have lusted for my neighbor’s wife,10 then let my wife serve[a] another man; let other men sleep with her.11 For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished.12 It is a fire that burns all the way to hell.[b] It would wipe out everything I own.13 “If I have been unfair to my male or female servants when they brought their complaints to me,14 how could I face God? What could I say when he questioned me?15 For God created both me and my servants. He created us both in the womb.16 “Have I refused to help the poor, or crushed the hopes of widows?17 Have I been stingy with my food and refused to share it with orphans?18 No, from childhood I have cared for orphans like a father, and all my life I have cared for widows.19 Whenever I saw the homeless without clothes and the needy with nothing to wear,20 did they not praise me for providing wool clothing to keep them warm?21 “If I raised my hand against an orphan, knowing the judges would take my side,22 then let my shoulder be wrenched out of place! Let my arm be torn from its socket!23 That would be better than facing God’s judgment. For if the majesty of God opposes me, what hope is there?
