You ever been so tempted you thought you might just fall right into the fire? Like standing in front of a fresh pecan pie when you’re supposed to be on a diet—it just calls your name. Temptation’s funny like that. It doesn’t knock politely; it barges in, plops on your couch, and dares you to say no.

But here’s the good news: 1 Corinthians 10:13 says that no temptation has grabbed hold of you except what’s common to man. In other words, you’re not the first fella or lady to wrestle with it—and you won’t be the last. And then Paul throws in the kicker: “God is faithful.” That means even when we’re weak, God is steady. He won’t let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.

But the best part? He always provides a way out. It might be a back door you didn’t even know was there—a friend calling at just the right time, a sudden change of heart, or maybe the sheer strength to walk away.

So, next time you feel like you’re about to cave, remember this: God’s already built you an escape route. You just have to take it. You’re not alone in the struggle, and with Him on your side, you’ve got more strength than you think. Keep walking. Keep trusting. And when temptation comes, look for the way out—because it’s always there.
