Day  5 Made To Crave

Devotional

Desperation breeds defeat.

What great thing have I traded for so little in return?

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.  1 Corinthians 10:13

 

Chapter 4

Friends Don’t Let Friends Eat before Thinking

Think it over.

How many bad choices and severe consequences could have been averted if that three-word statement had been applied?

We need measures of accountability.

When what is lacking in life goes from being an annoyance to an anxiety, we run the risk of compromising in ways we never thought we would.

Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert. 1 Peter 7-8

Find a friend who can speak rationality into your irrational impulses. A friend who will hold you accountable, speak the truth in love, and pray for you.

Accountability is crucial!
