Why are the feeble offerings of the world so attractive? Why are we so lured to them like bream to beetle-spin?

I chuckle to still the fear when I survey the Hebrew letter; hear its sender say, “set aside every weight.” The hindrances are so many.

    “…and the EASILY entangling sin”…always makes me stop and consider what, specifically, is that sin that EASILY encircles my feet, that reappears to again hinder my forward movement? And for me, I cannot chuckle…rather, I weep that it so easily…again… keeps me from walking. You are much farther along than I.

    It is why Jesus said pray, “lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil!”
