When I was a little kid, we sang a song in Sunday School. It said, "Be careful little eyes what you see. Be careful little eyes what you see. For the Father up above is looking down with love, so be careful little eyes what you see." The song went on to cover the ears, etc.
I recently read a saying in the newspaper under the joke section. "Eyes may be the window of the soul, but they're also the superhighway to temptation." (Author Unknown) While the saying is true, someone treated this as a big laugh. With the Internet and other media filling the airwaves with an avalanche of filth, it's a serious matter.
Job declared he had made a covenant with his eyes. Why then should he look upon a maid? (Job 31:1) The same could be said about other areas of temptation. Have we made a covenant with our eyes?
