Whenever You are Tempted

Whenever you are tempted stop and think,

Remember how temptations followed Christ

With Satan in the wilderness to slink

And hunger, fame and power so enticed.

The Son of God was tempted all the time,

For many wanted Him to fail his work.

The Pharisees tried tricking Him sublime

With questions that they hoped the Lord would shirk.

Disowned by followers, disciples, God,

And on the cross some tempted Him to live.

But He did not succumb to something flawed,

So now just call on Him, He'll gladly give.

            Christ understands what you are going through

            He'll help you beat temptation's point of view.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted,

he is able to succour them that are tempted.

Hebrews 2:18 KJV
