Temptation as we wait.....

How long must we wait until the fulfillment of the word of the Lord ... Will it be too late? Will we, or our children's children, be subsumed by the dragging, ever-present seduction of the glittering culture surrounding us? When the Lord calls, will anyone desire to listen? -- Thom Lemmons


There is so much out there in the world to entice and seduce us. We get lulled by a false sense of security that we can handle it, we are strong in our faith after all.....aren't we???

We, as believers are just as susceptible to the "call of the wild".

Only through a close relationship with Jesus Christ can we overcome the temptations of this world. We need to pray, we need to soak in God's Word, we need to live the life He designed for us.......

  1. Isn't sin kind of dumb? I mean if we suffered the consequences first we probably never would give in to temptation.

    Like if you suffered the hangover BEFORE you had that drink!

    I am a work in progress that's for sure....

    worship while I wait....

    God bless.
