Walk away

What do you do when temptation stares you in the face.  It smiles, laughs, and promises great things; makes you think you're missing out and life is passing you by.  Normally, you would give in...only to find the only thing great about it was the lie.  This time, you realize what you're here for and the sacrifice that comes with it.  And it requires an acceptance beyond a verbal agreement.  It requires an acceptance from the heart.  And you find the strength inside to finally say "No!  I'll die before I let you steal what God has put in me to share with the world."  You remember what you're fighting for, and how many lives your sacrifice will save in the process.  Then, it becomes easy to look temptation in the eye and confidently, triumphantly...walk away.
