Abhor

Now here’s a word you don’t hear very often. It’s a great word though. Think about it. To abhor something is to detest it. There are some things that go on in this word that are truly detestable. God detests some things and it’s actually right that we should too.

So today work up some righteous abhorrence for the evil things that happen on earth. Feel some of God’s frustration, disappointment and even fury over the way some people abuse others, or take advantage of them, or turn a blind eye to others sufferings. If you can, do something to work against the rotten things going on around you. Commiserate with God whose pain and frustration is so much greater than ours. Pray for the victims of evil.
