The Will to...

Most people have will power. It’s won’t power that they lack. -  J. Shedd

Paul said if eating meat (which he liked) would cause his brother to stumble, he’d no longer eat it. Hmm!

Lay’s Potato Chips original slogan was ‘betcha can’t eat just one!’ It was actually more a test of one’s intelligence moreso than will power (you don’t buy a bag for just 1 chip). Sin operates in much the same way if we’re not careful. Once you get a taste of it, it continually works on your will and better judgment to wear you down. He that knows what he should do and doesn’t do it – sins. The desires of the flesh are strong, and the enemy crafty and wise. You can be sure you will be sorely tested today somehow and someway. Will you or won’t you?

Until tomorrow….
