From the song 'The Weakness In Me' by Keisha White:

Why do you come here when you know I got troubles enough?
Why do you call me when you know I cant answer the phone?
Make me lie when I don't want to
and make someone else some kind of unknowing fool
You make me stay when I should not.
Are you so strong or is the weakness in me?

"You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage — pleasantly, smilingly, nonapologetically — to say ’no’ to other things. And the way to do that is by having a bigger ’yes’ burning inside. The enemy of the ’best’ is often the ’good.’"
- Stephen Covey

"If I’ve already thought through a situation and have a response prepared ahead of time in the event temptation rears its ugly head, it is that much easier to resist."
- Tim Tebow, Through My Eyes: A Quarterback's Journey: Young Reader's Edition
"I once faced a temptation that was so persistent and so overwhelming that I literally believed my whole world would go dark if I refused to give in to it," he said. "All I could do was scream to the Holy Spirit to keep me from it."
- Wesley Hill, Washed and Waiting: Reflections on Christian Faithfulness and Homosexuality
"The Word of God has always been our best defense against Satan’s temptations..."
