Temptation

The desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. A thing or course of action that attracts or tempts someone.

Examples of Temptations. Skipping your workout. Indulge. Have a candy bar at lunch. Gossip about someone. Pop a pill to help you bulk up. Cheating on a spouse.

Cheating on a spouse is acting on something that was first a thought in your mind. Then you carried it out with an action. We all have desires at times to do something that we know isn't the right decision to make, but sometimes we go against our own good judgement and do it anyway, not realizing that there are consequences to doing something that is wrong. Especially if you are hurting someone else in the process.

Talking about a temptation, I have to always think about what I eat before I eat it in order to avoid making the wrong choices if I am trying to achieve a specific goal with my body, and health.

I have to fight hard to avoid the wrong sugary foods and drinks. They are very tempting, but add no real nutrient value to my body and health. I must make wise choices daily to help me to achieve my goals.

Alcohol is definitely another dangerous temptation if you keep running to it every time you face a problem or situation. You cover up the situation by drinking alcohol so that you don't have to think about the situation. Praying about a situation and consulting the Lord is a better solution to a problem than running to the bottle. It is not good for your health.

STEALING STEALING STEALING. Taking what doesn't belong to you.

This is definitely a bad habit, and temptation that one carries out that is wrong. We all have choices to make in life, but we must learn to make the right choices daily no matter what your temptation is. One way to not yield to temptations is to have a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. If you read the Word of God and delight yourself in him, He will give you the desires of your heart, and teach you how to achieve what it is that you desire without you having to go about it the wrong way.

WE ALL HAVE CHOICES CHOICES CHOICES CHOICES

But we must choose to do what is right in the sight of the Lord and obey the laws of the land. I face temptations daily, and I daily have to practice not yielding to them as we all do. I may not have the same temptation as you, but I have to practice taking better care of my body daily, by watching what it is that I put into my temple that the Lord gave me.

Yes sometimes it is hard to avoid a temptation but with the Lords help, we can do all things through Christ that daily strengthens us. Yield not to temptations as the bible says. Resist the devil and he will flee from us, but you must RESIST THE URGES TO DO SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW DOESN'T YIELD A GOOD FRUIT, BUT A BAD FRUIT INSTEAD.

FRUITS AND VEGGIES

FRUITS AND VEGGIES is a right choice to make for the my health and choose sweets sparingly. Practicing good habits is just that, practice it daily and soon it will become a good habit. The end result is a Disciplined Lifestyle. Free to choose to do what you know is the right thing to do whether it is food, alcohol, drugs, spousal cheating, stealing, lying, etc. It's your choice but ask the Lord to help you to make the right choices daily. Read the Bible instead.
