"Do not give that which is holy (the sacred thing) to the dogs, and do not throw your pearls before hogs, lest they trample upon them with their feet and turn and tear you into pieces." Matthew 7:6 AMP
Being the fleshly beings we are, when we truly desire something in our lives, and we want it to happen yesterday, we can easily come to a point where we give in and do what we feel we got to do to get it - even if it means falling into sin to get it. We begin to think things like: This is my only chance; I've worked so hard for this moment; God knows my heart; and the list goes on and on. However, unless we take a big bold step of faith, and walk away from giving into sin, even if it hurts, then we've done committed the sin, and, guaranteed, there will be big prices to pay for it.
Friends, when an opportunity of a lifetime comes your way, but you have to commit small (or big) sins to take it, then it really isn't an opportunity of a lifetime at all - it is an opportunity of death (destruction, bad endings, loss, and darkness). Therefore, take the high road and walk away from an opportunity where sin is involved, and you can rest assure that God has a better one for you. Plus, after He sees the strength you just showed by walking away, the one He has for you will be even greater than you ever thought of, hoped for, or imagined!!
Trust God, and walk away from falling into sin to get what you want!!
