Stop dancing with the devil

The world has a subtle, almost imperceptible way of weaving its desires into the fabric of our lives. it doesn't often announce itself with trumpets and banners, proclaiming its allegiance to forces contrary to god's. instead, it whispers. it coaxes. it suggests, with gentle insistence, that certain paths are the only ones worth treading, that certain achievements are the only ones that matter, and that certain ways of living are simply the normal way to live. this is the siren song of societal norms, a melody that can lead even the most devout of us onto treacherous shores if we are not vigilant. i invite you to stop dancing with the devil!
