One of my sons is trying to loose weight,he told me what he was eating, and what he was not eating,being overweight is a big concern in our country. It can lead in extreme cases to diabetes,heart problems, strokes,even certain types of cancer. We live in a country where he have so much food available,so easy to over eat.There was a saying going about years ago it went,'naughty but nice',but it is not nice being overweight. Let's consider another aspect as regards weight, having a guilty conscience, the fact is we all have a conscience,we can have a good conscience,a bad conscience,and a hardened conscience. Joseph was charged with attempted rape,found guilty and imprisoned but he was innocent,he had a good concsience free from shame and guilt.A bad conscience does leaves one feeling guilty,but we try to ignor it but it can effect us,and we will always carry it with us,there is a way out,seek God for forgiveness through Jesus. Then we come to a harden conscience.one writer describes it like this,'It means becoming less sensitive to moral considerations and less inclined to feel remorse for wrong doings.it can happen gradually through repeated acts of sin or delibertly ignoring a moral compass,It is esseentially a process of becoming desensitized as to what is right and wrong,leading to a diminished capacity for guilt or regret'. I will continue with this next time .
