We Always Have A Choice

"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."  1 Corinthians 10:13 (NIV)

The Apostle Paul tells the Christians at Corinth that God will not allow them to be tempted beyond which they are able to handle.  No matter how great the temptation, God will always provide them with a way out of a tempting situation without giving in or yielding to sin.

The popular translation of this verses is: God will not put more on you than you can bear.  And for every tempting sinful situation, He provides a non-sinful option as a way out.  We always have a choice, we just need to pray for His help in choosing the right way.
