What I Really Wantনমুনা

Written by Katie, age 17 from Kennesaw, Georgia, USA

We all know what it feels like to be tempted by something, right? Maybe it’s being tempted to lie or disobey your parents or mentors. Or maybe it’s being tempted to eat too much ice cream or stay up too late playing video games when you know you should go to bed. When we face temptation (and even when we give in to temptation), we can always turn to God. He’ll be there to help us and to forgive us when we mess up. And this will lead to our victory through Jesus! By not giving in to temptation, we can experience more of the good things that God has planned for us. We can give thanks to God for helping us when we face temptation and for the good things that He has planned for us!

Right now, simply pray this one sentence prayer: Thank you God, for helping me when I face temptation.
