A Way Out

No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to everyone. 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.

(1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV)

I am incredibly grateful that every temptation has an escape hatch. Lord, I want to be a woman who is in the habit of looking for a way out of a tempting circumstance, not lingering in the snare zone.

No matter how powerful a lure might be, please help me to resist the bait. Keep reminding me that Your ways are best. They are filled with peace and satisfaction, and they never leave a trace of regret lingering in my soul.

            How to escape temptation:

            Step One: Look for an escape route. (Pray!)

         Step Two: Take the escape route. (Run!)

         Step Three: Enjoy your freedom. (Dance!)
