"Prone to wander, Lord I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love" is a line from one of the most famous hymns "Come thou fount of every blessing". This is a phrase that we all at times are too familiar with. It is also the key to overcoming temptation. James cautions us about wandering from God because it is when we are distant from God that we are most vulnerable to giving in to temptation. You can overcome temptation when you are intentionally walking in close fellowship to God!
