A pastor friend of
mine, who was separated from his wife of 15 years suddenly, had the desire for
a young widow. He knew it wasn’t right but his desire was so intense that he
didn’t heed to any advice. He fell for this young widow and the inevitable happened:
The lady got pregnant for him. That was when he begun to realize where his
desire has led him to. He became so guilty of this sin that it was drawing him
farther away from God. He couldn’t worship God anymore. The more he tried, the guiltier
he became. He couldn’t feel God’s presence. It seemed as if the Holy Spirit was
on vacation.
The lady started giving him attitude, nothing
he did could please the woman. He felt helpless and said quietly to himself, let
me rescind to my fate for I brought it upon myself. After visiting the young
widow one hot afternoon, he boarded a bus at the local bus station to go back
home. As he sat in the bus he couldn’t help crying. He was so overwhelmed. He
needed God; he couldn’t get out of this hole alone. As he kept on thinking, He
fell into a deep sleep. The scripture 1
Corinthians 10:13 appeared in a vision, that no temptation has overtaken you except
what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond
what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so
that you can endure it. A message to all those who are tempted, God says there
is a way out, just cling to him.
