Gen.2:24-25, 19:1-26

ÒBut his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of saltÓ (Gen.19:26). < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>LotÕs wife looked back behind him. Have you been looking behind your partner when you should be looking forward together? It is dubious character for partners to be looking behind each other in a journey they are supposed to be looking forward together. It probably was not the first time that LotÕs wife had been looking back behind her husband. The bible said she looked behind him. The word of God says they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed (Gen.2:25). Relationship between wife and husband should be a naked one; a transparent relationship; not hide and seek one. When it falls short of sincere nakedness, shame becomes an inevitable result of one that is not naked. LotÕs wife was not naked to her husband and shame of becoming a pillar of salt became her portion from generation to generation. Are you a dubious character? How much have you been hiding away from your husband or wife? You have been keeping it all away from each other? Are you experiencing shame and you can not identify the source of this shame? You have been hiding it away from each other and nothing shameful has ever happened. It will not take forever before your sin finds you out. Ask for GodÕs mercy to intervene in every area of hide and seek between you and your partner. God does not over look sin.
