Editor's Note: One proven strategy to avoid pitfalls in a successful diet is never to keep sugary foods around the house. When shopping, don't even think of buying that chocolate spread instead of the healthy alternative. You might think having that box of chocolate in the cupboard doesn't matter until you find yourself stuffing your mouth with just that in the middle of the night *cough* Experience is the best teacher!!. Truth is, you may not be as strong as you think. In the wake of temptation, Joseph did not stand and argue with Potiphar's wife, he gladly fled leaving his cloak behind (Gen 39). It didn't matter the cost of the cloak neither did he wonder at the "indignity" of fleeing before a woman. He knew there was more at stake than the simple gratification of the flesh. If fleeing the clutches of an amorous woman saved Joseph in the long run, then you my friend can flee that yummy looking chocolate pudding. Enjoy this brilliant article by the author of the best selling book, The Purpose Driven Life.
Be alert, continue strong in the faith. Have courage and be strong" 1 Corinthian 16:13(NCV)
