Would Jesus Be Ashamed of What We Watch On Tv

Would Jesus Be Ashamed of What We Watch on T.V.?

Do you accept the ungodliness on t.v.?
I can't believe what many
Christians watch and see.
Every sort of wickedness and 
lust is now on the screen.
How can one be Godly, 
when their eyes are “unclean?”
Our body is to be the temple
of the Holy Spirit.
It's one thing to say...  Another to live it!
Let’s be careful of what we allow
our families to watch!
Godliness in the household must be taught.
Cling to that which is wholesome,
virtuous and good.
Let’s watch the kind of shows only
a child of God should.
The temptations on television 
try to allure.
Let’s think on thoughts that
are clean and pure.
What kind of choices in our 
lives have been made?
Are we living in victory?
Or television's slave?
Remember that for us, our savior 
came and died.
It’s living 100% for Jesus that we’re 
truly satisfied!
