Running from a tempting struggle is the first step to victory
— This is so true. If you’re not confident you can walk away from something hurtful to you (emotionally, physically, spiritually) then you need to work on being able to do so. Like running, it can only get easier and easier if you work at it.
“Run from anything that stimulates youthful lust. Follow anything that makes you want to do right. Pursue faith and love and peace, and enjoy the companionship of those who call on the Lord with pure hearts.”
2 Timothy 2:22
