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 stand up under it. <\/p>\n<p>Observation: My mind wanders so much and I look at things I know I shouldn\u2019t be looking at.  I may stare at a woman, when I should turn away, I look at things that I want to buy, but have no need of and would hurt us financially, I judge people and think evil thoughts before I remember I\u2019m looking at God\u2019s child.  I\u2019m tempted every day and I put myself in situations to be tempted instead of doing things that can keep me away from that temptation.<\/p>\n<p>Application: I know God will provide a way out I need to look for the exit instead of carousing inside.  I should know whatever I\u2019m looking at God can see through my eyes and I know it doesn\u2019t please Him, but disappoints Him.  I need to be stronger and start looking at things through God\u2019s eyes, with God\u2019s heart.  I know I\u2019m easily tempted so I need strength to stay away from temptation.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer: My Lord forgive me for my weakness.  I search out things I shouldn\u2019t, please help me to be a better servant in this life.  Keep me from temptation and guide me on the path you choose. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture: 1Corinthians 10 [13] No temptation has seized you except what is common to man.
