"Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love Him. When tempted no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desires and enticed. Then after desire is conceived, it gives birth to to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death"
James 1:12-15
I especially need to remember this verse and apply it. I got a new computer a few weeks ago and it has wireless Internet access. I do school on it and it is a HUGE temptation to go online for a bit during school.
This verse makes it clear that is worth fighting against the temptation no matter how hard it is or will be.
To God alone be the Glory!
