I'm pretty sure that this is one of those statements made by "Captain Obvious" as he bounds into the room determined to solve everything with just one more ridiculously obvious observation....
But can I just say anyhow.... NO ONE is ever tempted to do what they're supposed to.
Getting ahold of this is life changing.
I will never be tempted to get off facebook and mop my floor, or read to a toddler.
I will never be tempted to get up early and spend extra time in prayer.
I will never be tempted to be quiet and still, and let my husband lead.
I think you get my drift.....
whether it's how you spend your time,
how you deal with difficulties in your marriage,
how you treat your children,
what you do with your money,
your devotional life,
You'll never be tempted to do what you're supposed to do.
Whether or not I want to do something is absolutely no measure of whether or not it's a good idea. And frankly, whether or not I even think something is a good idea is no measure to use. The Bible says the heart is desperately wicked and deceitful above all things, and my heart gives me daily proof.
Choose wisely my friends, according to what the Word says and not according to what you want or don't want to do, remembering you're never tempted to do what you're supposed to.
Eph. 5:15-16 "Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time because the days are evil."
