Deceit

Why do some people practice deception? Many do it for financial gain, for social advantage, to hide immoral acts, or to obtain other "benefits' . Engaging in decietfulness is a slap in GOD's face and has dire consequences. When we make a choice not to trust him to handle a situation, we, in essence, decide He's a liar and will renege on His promise to meet every need. We then proceed to make our own way by any means necessary-----even being deceptive. Ind doing so we forfeit the good life GOd had planned for us.

(Deborah Smith Pegues, Taming your Tongue)

Who would love life and see good days must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from deceitful speech- 1 Peter 3:10
