I'm pretty sure this has happened a numerous of times in many of our lives. We have placed ourselves under the covering of the Lord yet to see ourselves being tripped up by sin. then to have to go to the merry go round and have to repent. As Christians we never understand how we got to that place we are trying to leave,but isn't it Wonderful to have a great "Creator"that understands? He knows we stumble but he expects us to stay focused on him in order not to stumble. Too many times we continue to be around the same things,people, and look at the same books and movies. thees objects that we call "harmless" has a way of planting the same seed in us that got us into trouble in the first place. Lets place our hands in our Fathers' and be lead by his spirit. That way when the distractions come we are so focused on him that all we see is Glory to Glory
