Romans 14:22, 23

Happy is the man who does not sin by doing what he knows is right
I know I'm supposed to take good care of the body God has given me.
And I know I am suppose to eat the healthy food and fewer unhealthy food.
But! Then I see something that would be soooo delicious.
Good-bye resolve. Hello indulgence.

That is surely the way to happiness-simply doing right in the first place, avoiding the sticky problems of sin.
John Dryden once put it: "Better shun the bait than struggle in the snare."

God, forgive me for my self-indulgence. I know that, without You, I can do nothing. But with You, all things are possible. Please help me conquer temptations.
