Marsha's Musings: Lust & Chastity

I was reading this week in Tabletalk, an article on lust and chastity. The following quote seemed to jump out at me:

Lust involves any strong desire, craving, or want that opposes the holy will and command of God. Lust perverts, twists, and defiles all that is good and beautiful, and this is particularly true with sexual or carnal lust.

It says ANY strong desire, craving or want that opposes God's will or command. It includes the sexual area, but it also includes other areas as well, such as gluttony, or financial greed. Any area of our lives could fall into this area of sin if we put it above God and His will for us.
