I think that's exactly what Numbers 25 illustrates. Israel didn't wake up one day intending to turn from God. Their hearts drifted little by little until the unthinkable became their reality. It reminds us that faithfulness is cultivated through our daily choices, and that is why guarding our hearts matters so much.
The unthinkable becomes the thoughtless actions.
