1 Peter 2:11 Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
Oh it is so easy just to go along with what others are doing just to keep the peace. It is just as easy to give in to those temptations around us and hope that we get it out of our system…
But this is not what God expects from us. He expects us to try to stand firm and stand up against the temptations because He is trying to lead us away from them.
If we are going to ask Him to keep us from them, we should trust Him to do exactly that!
