Troubling Temptation - A

Soul Snack 27/10 ... Troubling Temptation - A

Resisting temptation is seated in the desire to be better, it is fuelled by the love of righteousness.

The reality of temptation pursues with a voracious and consuming dis-regard towards its desired victim. There is no time place or activity where it is not known.

Temptation is as perrenial as the tides.

Temptation is as frequent as breath.

Temptation is as permanent as the night following day.

The yeast of its desire rises in the heart and is baked in the oven of weariness.

Temptation first draws, then delights and finally destroys.

 

"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil." (James 1:13-15)
