Temptation

When we fall into a trap of temptation it is easy to try and place the blame on someone else or on circumstances. But the truth is we would never have been tempted in the first place had it not been for the desire in us. Remove the desire at its root and the temptation will never return. We have to be on guard to stop ourselves from falling into the trap. We do it on our own strength, using our own understanding. You can't just have one drink, one piece of candy, one donut, one piece of pie, and so forth. But with His help, you can remove the desire and eliminate the temptation's stronghold on your life. ~ DickEvans.org
