The temptation.
I do not know about you but when I am so close to the end of finishing a goal, there is always this temptation to do something that will set me back. For instance, with my #nospend challenge. Day 6 came, and I fell into the temptation to spend. So, honestly, I had 5 good #nospend days but the sixth day I just caved. Two burgers after I was like, I really got to try this again and aim to do better.
Look, temptation will always be there, but God won't allow, too much you cannot bear. Additionally, we're all human and do not do everything as planned. Thanks to God for is grace and mercy.
1 Corinthians 10:13, No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Lessons learnt;
📌To keep on keeping on & not give in -Temptation is nothing I cannot handle, when my eyes are fixed on Jesus, He will make a way out.
📌Remember how far you've come - Stay reminded of how far you've come & that it's not too long to go.
📌Do not celebrate early - Celebration is granted to those who endure it all.
My Day 6 - looked like this;
Prayer - especially when things are tough, it's hard but I know I can try better and so can you.
In the deep - A verse is good, but a chapter provides context and sustenance.
Seek The Lord's guidance in everything!
Matthew 6:33, But seek first His kingdom & His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
