Proverbs 1:15 my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths;
It is so easy to experiment with things, take a drink too far, walk on ice, balance on the edge… but as soon as you fall you know that you should not have done that! And it’s too late!
It is so easy to give in to any temptation – that is why it is called temptation; we are tempted to give it a go knowing that we should not be – and we fail!
God does not want us to “give it a go” but to separate ourselves from those evil ways and to walk with Him instead. Yes it may be hard to continue walking with God, but the rewards are without comparison!
