WORD OF GOD - MT 16:23

MATTHEW 16:23

But he turned and said to Peter, ‘Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling-block to me; for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.’

---- Mine,

You become a stumbling block to yourself and to others when you
follow the world and its culture. It is easy to buckle under the pressure that the world imposes on those who refuse to be swept along the current of popular opinion. The ways of the world are steeped in evil and lead to death, the way of the Cross is hard and difficult but it abounds with life and leads to the Kingdom of God. There will be times in your life when faced with choices you will be tempted to choose the easier road which leads to death but if you set your mind on the things of heaven you will live.
