Day 27

Today's reading kind of kept contradicting itself, haha. It was a bit confusing @囗@

Temptation begins by capturing your attention. What gets your attention arouses your emotions. Then your emotions activate your behaviour, and you act on what you felt. The more you focus on "I don't want to do this," the stronger it draws you into its web.

This is so true! It's saying like, I'm not hungry I'm not hungry or I won't be nervous I won't be nervous and then actually ending up hungry and ending up nervous~ Now I've learnt it's the same with temptation - just keep your mind on something else.

Hiding your heart only intensifies it. Problems grow in the dark and become bigger and bigger, but when exposed to the light of truth, they shirnk. You are only as sick as your secrets. So take off your mask, stop pretending you're perfect, and walk into freedom.
Yeeeah a lot of people need to learn this. And when I show my problems, I notice many will worry : It's not their fault - all I probably really need is more help through prayer.

I can't think of any temptations right now.. except maybe likee going on the computer when I'm supposed to be doing homework? = ="...

And how I know the real reason why believers from whenever they're process of develophing in Christ need to memorize Bible verses - it's because sometimes these are the only connections to God we have. How do we know how God will respond or react? It's because of the verses we have memorized and have learned more about God with. Sooo I need to memorize more @囗@
