Temptation: It's always hard to say no...

I think I may have mentioned before that I happen to be a fan of the television show, "So You Think You Can Dance." I am a huge fan of dancing and am somewhat secretly jealous of the people who are able to move that way. The video I posted below is actually focused all on addiction. The male is portraying the addiction while the woman is portraying the addict. The video actually starts on second 13 or something like that...I have not been moved by a dance such a way as I was with this one. I know that the choreographer wanted this focused on addiction, but I have to say that this one particular dance also made me think about human nature and how the devil is always there waiting for us to feel weak... He's always cunning and when we think we are on top of the world and will not do something to bring Jesus down, Satan is always there waiting patiently for his turn to strike, and then we fall into his gravity. He makes something look so great while we are down and then after you have sinned you feel sick and want nothing to do with him, but he is always there and very ready to strike again when you least expect it. The music for this dance is also amazing for this message. The lyrics for the entire song I have posted below.

Gravity
Sara Bareilles

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I’ll still feel you here ’til the moment I’m gone.

You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in you and not feel your rain.

[CHORUS]
Set me free, leave me be. I don’t want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I’m supposed to be.
But you’re on to me and all over me.

You loved me ’cause I’m fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.

[CHORUS]
Set me free, leave me be. I don’t want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I’m supposed to be.
But you’re on to me and all over me.

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you’re everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you’re neither friend nor foe though I can’t seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you’re keeping me down
Your keeping me down,
Your on to me, your on to me and all over

Something always brings me back to you
It never takes to long…
