These things were examples for us, so we won’t crave evil things like they did. Don’t worship false gods like some of them did, as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink and they got up to play. Let’s not practice sexual immorality, like some of them did, and twenty-three thousand died in one day. Let’s not test Christ, like some of them did, and were killed by the snakes. Let’s not grumble, like some of them did, and were killed by the destroyer. These things happened to them as an example and were written as a warning for us to whom the end of time has come. So those who think they are standing need to watch out or else they may fall. No temptation has seized you that isn’t common for people. But God is faithful. He won’t allow you to be tempted beyond your abilities. Instead, with the temptation, God will also supply a way out so that you will be able to endure it. (1 Corinthians 10:6-13, CEB)
Lead me not into temptation…
Oh, who am I kidding I know a shortcut follow me. Actually, none of us need help being led into temptation. We can make our way there all on our own. But God will always be with you to guide you from the place you take yourself.
Do not seek out things that pull us from God but live in a way that is pleasing and shows God’s love for all creation through your life.
Love like Jesus.
Loving People. Loving God.
