Day 199 of 365: Fighting temptations

Temptation is quite the test for the Christian. The temptation to snack, sleep or whatever that you fancy, or encounter. Even temptations find you when you have this itch to say something that is classified under gossip. It's everywhere and what Pastor Korch said today is true. We can't escape it, can't live freely from it and it'll always be there to entice you to do something that isn't pleasing to God. It's a test of where our foundation of faith really is because if we treasure our faith and love for God, temptations should be easier to overcome. Now that's easier, not easy. Fighting temptations is never easy, but going through temptations with the focus on pleasing God and hating sin is the way to go. If you allow for temptation to win over you, then where do you stand in your faith? Think about it.
