TEMPTATION,
LEADING TO SIN

A BUSINESSMAN was on a diet and experienced a craving for donuts. He drove to the donut shop and just kept circling the block. Then he prayed, “Lord, I know You don’t want me to eat donuts. I know that that’s not Your will, but I need You to confirm it. There are no parking spaces at this donut shop, so I’m going to drive around the block and if no parking space comes open, that will be confirmation.” After going around eight more times, a spot became available. His desire gave birth to a behavior and the behavior to a sin.950
