That’s right, the evil world of “The HIlls” sucked me right back in for their season premier last night. I hate it. I don’t know what it is about this show that my flesh finds so enticing…
Beyond my better judgement, I decided to give in and watch the new episode of MTV’s The Hills. I prepared by watching the Top 10 Most Memorable Moments of The Hills, stopped for a little accountability and when 10:00 rolled around (my usual bed time), I hit the sofa, PJ’s and granola bar in hand, and allowed my self to sit through 30 minutes of gut wrenching reality TV (ha ha).
I honestly could not give you one thing that I really enjoy about it. It depresses me, not only because it makes me lust over things that I should not be lusting over (e.i. clothes, money, cars, fame ) but because I just feel bad for these people who think they are so happy when clearly, they aren’t. I think the one thing that this wretched show does do is make me even more grateful that I am a Christian and my friends are Christian s and that without God in my life, I could very well be in the same sinful situations and have the same messed up mentality that these people do.
So as of today I am conviced about my lack of wisdom and dicernment. I know that this show as well as gossip mags. used to be idols of mine and I know that now that I don’t struggle (as much) does not permit me to go back to them, these things don’t do anything but encourage and temp me to sin… again and again…


Make a plan for what you are going to occupy that time slot with!
