Resist the Beginnings of Temptations
Ephesians 4:27
Neither give place to the devil.


The Arabs have a fable to this effect. A miller was one day startled by a camel's nose thrust through the window of the room where he was sleeping. "It is very cold outside," said the camel; "I only want to get my nose in." The nose was let in, then the neck, finally the whole body. Presently the miller began to be inconvenienced at the ungainly companion he had obtained, in a room certainly net large enough for both. "If you are inconvenienced, you may leave," said the camel; "as for myself, I shall stay where I am."
