Good Song

I heard this song on Air 1, and the words hit me like a ton of bricks. How satan works under the radar, like sugar in a baby tooth, slowly rotting away and we don't know until it is rotten from the inside out. The sugar turned out to be poison. What about everyting we tolerate on TV, in movies, radio, commericals, video games? The Victoria's Secret commercials? Graphic previews to violent movies?(some previews have scared Aidan to death) Drake making out with 2 girls at once on "Drake & Josh"? Beating cops with my skateboard on the Tony Hawk video game? Everytime Sonic dies on the "kids" game he says damn? Being promiscious will happen, just accept it as normal growing pains and move on? I could go on and on. I feel like I am made out to be a religious nut or a prude for trying to keep my kids from not being desensitized to stuff. I stink at remembering scripture, but I know God tells us not to put unGodly things before our eyes. Who knows human nature better? It is so hard not to things slide with me or my kids these days.

CASTING CROWNS--SLOW FADE

Be careful little eyes what you see
It's the second glance that ties your hands as darkness pulls the strings
Be careful little feet where you go
For it's the little feet behind you that are sure to follow

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
It's a slow fade, it's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear
When flattery leads to compromise, the end is always near
Be careful little lips what you say
For empty words and promises lead broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands
Is shorter than you're thinking
Be careful if you think you stand
You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away
It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

Oh be careful little eyes what see
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
For the Father up above is looking down in love
Oh be careful little eyes what you see
