What do you say when your peers are trying to convince you to do something you know is wrong?
Maybe they want you to try drugs, gossip, or watch something you know you aren't supposed to. It may even be your boyfriend trying to get you to go physically further with him.
What do you do? Do you give in, say no?
Mark 14:38 (New International Version)
38Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak."
When you have your daily quiet time, pray that you won't fall into temptation. I know it's tough to remember, but God will give you strength and endurance.
How do you say no?
Well chances are your friends know what they are doing is wrong, so they are feeling guilty. Just say no. Keep it nice, but just turn away and like the picture above run away!
God says that there isn't any temptation that can go past what we can bear.
1 Corinthians 10:13 (New International Version)
13No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. 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.
YOU CAN DO IT! STAY STRONG! BE COURAGEOUS! GOD IS ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDE!
