Greed

Greed reared its ugly head for me last night again. I didn't eat a huge amount at supper but still felt a little past satisfied. I feel saddened that I went for those candies after a very satisfying meal. But greater then just eating the candies was my heart attitude last night with them. I need to be on my guard and be prepared for temptation. I need to remain surrendered to Christ and living in His strength and power.
