Throw it out

I was reading in 1 Samuel 28:3 how Saul had cast all the mediums and the spiritists out of the land. Then shortly after that in verse 7 he told his attendants to find him a woman who is a medium, that he would go to her and inquire of her. He had just banned all those who speak with the dead, but when he got desperate he sought after a spiritualist for directions. It makes me think of how sometimes I don't seek God for help and I run to someone or something for directions. And Saul may have removed all the witchcraft from the land, but one thing he forgot was to remove it from his heart. Its so easy to criticize sin, but if our hearts are the same towards it, its nothing that we have changed.

  1. It's so crazy! It made me think of being a hypocrite and how we tell someone else not to do something and then we go and do it... That is definetly a hard thing to get down in life...
