We’re all tempted, just not in the same ways

Everyone experiences temptation, though not all in the same manner. It’s easy to understand people who sin like you sin. It’s harder to have compassion on those who experience different temptations. In Christ, we can find compassion for those who experience temptation without excusing sin.
