Later that same morning, I read a statement from the governor of New York, Eliot Spitzer who did not heed the words proverbs 5.
Gov. Eliot Spitzer is being asked to resign over a call-girl scandal. Investigators said Tuesday he was clearly a repeat customer who spent tens of thousands of dollars — perhaps as much as $80,000 — with the high-priced prostitution service over an extended period of time.
“I have acted in a way that violates my obligations to my family ... [and] my sense of right and wrong,” Spitzer said in a brief statement he read to reporters at his Manhattan office. “I must now dedicate some time to regain the trust of my family.”
That night I was watching a news cast, and they had former New York Mayor Ed Koch on TV. He knows the Spitzer family, specifically Mrs. Spitzer. He said that she has aged greatly in front of my own eyes in a just a few minutes.
While this is played out before the world. Spitzer and his family, remain secluded in their Fifth Avenue apartment.
In his resignation here is what the Governor said “I look at my time as governor with a sense of what might have been," Spitzer said.
May we all heed the words of the Apostle Paul. “Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is the temple the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own ? For you were bought at a price, therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." I Corinthians 6:18-20
