Poison

You know, that stuff that can be fatal to the body.

The dictionary says this: "Poisons are substances that can cause damage, illness, or death to organisms, usually by chemical reaction or other activity on the molecular scale, when a sufficient quantity is absorbed by an organism."

It is something that can destroy us if not dealt with immediately.

It pollutes our body.

It contaminates everything good in the body to the point of death.

Like a snake bite. Once the poison enters our body, drastic measures need to be taken to rid the body of it. Sometimes the cure can be worse than the bite but we go ahead with it so the body doesn't die.

Poison is like that. It infiltrates. It debilitates. It destroys. It kills.

Oh God, we need to be aware of that venom striking at your body, the body of Christ. May we be wise in our treatment, so we may be fully restored to health.
