Sin can attack us from anywhere at any moment. And it is definitely at most times, going to be in a disguise. Committing a sin is also breaking God's law. Even though he sent Jesus down to die for our sins, it is still bad to commit a sin in modern day. God is aware of the struggle we have to a day to day basis of committing sins because of the surroundings and other things that urge us to sin. However God has given us a great gift that is undefeatable to any worldly factor, which is the Holy Spirit. In order to take the Holy Spirit in use is by taking the thought of any worldly things in your mind and putting God first. Another way to overcome sin is even just by having a partner that talks to you on a daily basis. Checking up on you of what is going on and seeing if you are doing okay. With this partner you can talk about your temptations and how you can overcome them in ways that seem beneficial in your Christian walk. Believe me it is definitely a struggle, but even with the littlest things to help you, you can overcome the sins that seemed hard for you to get over, easier than before. Every day brings upon a new morning with temptations that may come your way throughout the day. Sin intends to dig into your mind deeper and deeper every time you encounter it. You might think that since you did so great by not committing the sin that you usually commit, like cursing for a day, that you are all good for that day. However that is completely wrong even though it was good that you did not commit the sin that day; sin is going to come back again. When we ask God for forgiveness we feel guilty, but we should not. Because one, he loves us and always will from the day you were born. However he wants to test you and know that you are a strong child of God. It is like a teacher who loves their students so much that he/she would not just teach their kids and be out. However one that cares would check up daily on what is going on and try to help them along their life. God sometimes tests us. When your school teacher gives out a test, they remain silent during your test. Just like that, God is quiet while he gives us a test. He can be in disguise as a hot girl, or anything else that tempts you to give in to sin. We have to be strong in our Christian walk, best thing to do is have a friend that you can trust that will be a human guidance throughout your life.
