Fight or Flight

reflecting on the passage in Genesis (I love Genesis) where Potiphar's wife tries to seduce Joseph. verse 12 (in Chapter 39) says "she caught him by his garment, saying, 'Lie with me.' But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside." I give Joseph sooo much credit for that. not only is he handsome and smart and forgiving and prosperous and trustworthy (etc etc), but he's also so strong in his commitment to making Godly decisions. are there still any Joseph's out there? I wonder.

I want to be like Joseph and run from life's temptation. to stand firm in my convictions to do what is right-honoring God above all.
