Own

Book: James
Chapter: 1
Verse: 14
Statement: Everyone is tempted when, by his own evil desires, he is dragged away and enticed.
Word: Own
Thought: Own it. Today, I must own my temptations. I cannot blame them on Satan, I cannot blame them on others, or culture, or accident, or even God. My temptations are mine. They are of my own making and a result of my own evil desires. I did not borrow them, I did not merely accept them as something handed to me. They are mine, I own them. And... since I own them, I can do with them whatever I please. God help me to dispose of these evil desires today.
