“Stay alert; be in prayer so you don’t wander into
temptation without even knowing you’re in danger.
There is a part of you that is eager, ready for anything in God.
But there’s another part that’s as lazy as an old dog sleeping by the fire.”
Matthew 26:41 (Holy Bible; The Message)
Whenever we are are alone in the home (or in the mind),
let us keep ourselves on the alert and pray in order to be spared from temptation.
God the Holy Spirit, who will enable us to pray eagerly will also
enforce us to prevail over the temptation.
Whether we like it or not, inevitably we fail at times.
Invariably, let us plead to God to keep ourselves away from yielding to temptations, absolutely.
Curfews may keep the ‘House of God’ under lockdown but not our ‘Heart for God’, forever.

ReplyDeleteYes! We need to be watchful and pray that we cannot be a prey to a temptation.
ReplyDeleteYes! sometimes we fail to omit the mistake we commit.
What if the church doors are closed?
Let the gates of our hearts be opened.
God bless!!
