An image for a blog that I hope will take root.Prompt: How do you deal with temptation?

The first thing I have to bear in mind is that temptation is not sin. All humans, even Jesus were and are tempted. However dwelling on the temptation leads to sin. When I am tempted I have learned to deal with temptation the way Jesus did, I quote a fitting scripture as to why it is sin to do whatever I am tempted to do. If I cannot remember one I will quote I Corinthians 10:13 or Philippians 4:13. Look them up and use them!

Blog City image smallPrompt: "If you could only use music to describe yourself to someone, what song would it be and why? If you can add the youtube link so we can hear it too.

The song that describes me is "Just As I Am". This is because I approach God just as I am. He accepts me warts and all because I am covered by the blood of Jesus Christ. I also expect people to accept me just as I am so the title fits either way.

It's interesting how different our perception can be, Discuss the different perspectives and examples of perceptions in your life."

I probably have a different worldview than most. I see people as a counselor sees them because I am a therapist or nearly so. My degree will give me the credentials to be a therapist. I feel that it is our past that drives our present. Things happen to us that make us angry, happy, sad, joyful, whatever and this drives our behavior in the present. Empathy is how we look at things from the other person's perspective. If one masters empathy one can get along well.
