WHAT CAUSED ME TO SLIP?

Have you ever slipped and lost your footing while walking? What caused it to happen? Truth is, there may be many different causes that led to the slip. One thing is for sure, it wasn’t due just to a faulty philosophy. Something interacted with the situation and caused the slip.

Maybe it was ice, a brick, or a stray pet that tripped you up. Maybe it was because you weren’t watching where you were going. Point being, some outside influence was involved.
When our spiritual steps slip, how do we know what caused it? Things generally “don’t just happen.” Did I invite the “ice” that caused me to slip or did I just step on it because it was there? We are responsible for our own lives under God. It is what I do with what is given me that determines how it affects my life. How do I create the situations that cause me to slip? How do I contribute to my own downfall? Get the message “What caused me to slip?”
