Our way out of temptation

“There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.”
1 Corinthians 10:13 RV1895 https://bible.com/bible/1922/1co.10.13.RV1895
Today’s verse is good for those of us that want to emanate the life of Christ. Being a follower of Christ and having the Holy Spirit isn’t a guarantee of an easy life. We are still tempted by satan.
However, we have a way out. We can say no to satan. Another way to think about it is to say YES to the Lord. We can say yes, I have the choice to do what I want. However, I chose what I know is right. We can choose, “thy will be done”.
