Christ’s Help in Temptation

No Christian is ever called upon to meet any temptation single-handed and alone. In every such moment the Lord Jesus Christ is an ever-present help. He “is a Friend that sticketh closer than a brother.”

Touched with a sympathy within, He knows our feeble frame; He knows what sore temptations mean, For he has felt the same.

This sympathy may be secured for the asking; yea, our Lord makes a standing offer of it, and the tried and tempted soul need only accept it; and with the sympathy comes strength and deliverance to the trusting soul; for we have the blessed assurance that God is faithful and will not suffer us to be tempted above that we are able; but will with every temptation also make a way of escape, that we may be able to bear it.
