Lord Give Me Strength

by Cedar

Temptation Poetry Contest Winner 


God, help me fight this awful temptation,
I love my wife with all my heart and soul.
Don't allow this desire for another woman,
to take over my judgment and self control.

Give me strength Lord, to cast out Satan,
remove the sinful thoughts from my head.
This could ruin our wonderful marriage
and cause many painful tears to be shed.

My life is filled with countless blessings,
  a wife and children that I love and treasure.
How can I risk losing Your precious gifts,
just for a few moments of sexual pleasure.

An affair would destroy our happy home
 and put my family through so much sorrow.
The flesh is weak, but I must remain strong,
I'll end this relationship at work tomorrow.
