Does this seam familiar in our lives, that everything (Particularly TV) takes priority in spending time with our Lord and His word.....
The 23rd Channel
"The TV set is my shepherd. My spiritual growth shall want.
It maketh me to sit down and do nothing for His Name's sake, because it requireth all my spare time. It keepeth me from doing my duty as a Christian, because it presenteth so many good shows that I must see.
It restoreth my knowledge of the things of the world, and keepeth me from the study of God's Word. It leadeth me in the paths of failing to attend the evening worship services, and doing nothing in the Kingdom of God.
Yea, though I live to be a hundred, I shall keep on viewing my TV set as long as it will work, for it is my closest companion. Its sound and its picture, they comfort me.
It presenteth entertainment before me, and keepeth me from doing important things with my family. It fills my head with ideas which differ from those set forth in the Word of God.
Surely no good thing will come of my life, because my TV offereth me no good time to do the will of God; thus I will dwell in the place of the Devil and his angels forever."

Let us all seek to say no to worldly desires and entertainment.
It can be painful sometimes, but take that bitter remedy. It will make you well.
“For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of
the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.” - Romans 8:5
It will foster spiritual growth!
Blessings!

There is a lot of truth to that.
