The sin that has its grip on you is not more powerful than God. The guilt causing chaos in your mind is not louder than God's voice of forgiveness. The darkness created by your sin is not stronger than the light that shines from God's grace. And the sin that makes you feel powerless is not as powerful as it seems. God is.

That's why God won't allow you to be tempted beyond what you can handle. He will not let your temptations overwhelm you. He will always provide you with a way out.

What sin keeps tripping you up? Look for the escape route that God is offering you. It might involve setting a password on an account or bravely sharing your struggle with a friend. The way out could require making significant decisions to protect yourself or choosing not to put yourself in that situation again. No matter what form your escape route takes, God is providing it. So take it and embrace the freedom that comes from breaking free from that sin's control over your life.

It's important to remember: this process may need to be repeated. There may be another sin lurking in the shadows, waiting to take advantage.
