So here are some kids who are being tempted.
Notice how they try to resist, then bit by bit give in to temptation.
Or how they try to sneak ‘just a nibble’, hoping to get away with it.
Then there is the one who does not even bother to wait – better one now than two later.
Think about how you go through this same thing, how sometimes ‘just a nibble’ is the frist step down a slippery slope.
What is it that is tempting for you?

Hilarious!!! I sympathize with the kids trying to resist something that tastes good! Sometimes allowing something like chips or cookies “once in a while” leads back into having them on a daily basis. And it creeps up … Like once a month, then once a week, then a few times a week and then why bother even trying anymore? I am also tempted by time suckers … Like when I need to do dishes and vacuum and make lunches but I sit down at the computer or with a book for “just 5 minutes” or sit down to text back and forth with a friend and next thing I know, it’s bedtime and everything is still waiting to get done! I don’t have a tv for this reason, but there are always things to fill time mindlessly!
