I Read A Story About A Man Watching Birds Flying ...

I read a story about a man watching birds flying around Niagara Falls. He stood and watched these birds over a period of time as they swooped down through the mist and near the falls themselves. Gradually, little bits of ice began to build up on the wings of the birds and eventually the weight of the ice became to great and the birds would drop from the sky.

Or if you’re a science fiction fan, like I am, you can picture temptation like the gravity of a Black hole. You’re going to begin feeling it while you’re still a long ways off, and you’ve still got time to adjust your course. But as you get closer and closer to the black hole, the stronger the gravitational forces become until you can’t break free.

God won’t allow any temptation to confront you that can’t be overcome, but don’t press your luck.

“It is not falling into the water but lying in it that drowns.”
