My son, if sinners entice you, don't consent (1:10). The verse is saying that there is evil all around us, but we should stay strong and avoid the temptation. Sometime the easier or more appealing option is not the morally right option. The verse is telling us to avoid evil even if the evil is enticing. This verse sticks out to me because evil is all around us and it helps to be reminded that the choice is ours to do the right or wrong thing. We as humans are not perfect, but this week I am really going to strive to avoid temptation and do the right thing.
Good verse to choose Nicole. Temptation is all around us and it is difficult sometimes to stay on the path following God!
ReplyDeleteThis week I strived to avoid temptation. It was difficult at times, but this week I succeeded when I went to practice even though I wanted to come up with an excuse to skip our on running.
ReplyDeleteHard work gets ya to the finish line. Glad you avoided that temptation and pushed through the practice...it'll pay off in the long run!
