True Woman: You Are Responsible for Your Own Actions
Circumstances certainly have bearing on our reactions, but the liberating concept for me—one that my dad emphasized even more as I got into my teenage years—was, “You will not have to give account to God for what someone else does to you. You will only be held accountable for how you respond.”

Commitment Insurance - #6351
Box yourself in; put yourself on the line for your commitments to Christ - the ones you really do want to keep in your heart. If you're tired of the ups and downs of spiritual inconsistency, you're hungry for a Christian lifestyle instead of just Christian binges - well, take out some commitment insurance; some brothers or sisters who will help you weigh in regularly.

Porn and sex dangers on Internet: protect you and your family with accountability program or filter
not taken sufficient action to counter wrong uses of the Web. And because the Internet is a sort of worldwide library – that gives access to anyone, anything, anywhere, in seconds – the dangers and temptations are real.
Internet Evangelism Day strongly believes that the Web is a tool God has given us for evangelism and discipleship. But as in any other form of ministry, you need God’s protection. [www.urbana.org/wtoday.ephesians.cfm?article=95] Because you may be using the Internet in the familiar surroundings of home or office, it may seem deceptively safe. Although we encourage many types of online evangelism, we also want to alert you to potential dangers. See, for instance, our warning about outreach at Second Life.
If you are involved in starting online ministry, especially outreach, you will be under additional attack [www.urbana.org/_articles.cfm?recordid=107] and prayer partners are essential.
How bad is it?

Someone Else's Ticket - #5793
Thank God, He's given you another opportunity, this opportunity to take Jesus for yourself, to make Him not just the Savior, but your personal Savior. You may have people all around you who belong to Jesus, and maybe you've been hoping that your relationship with them, even the fact that they think you belong to Jesus will somehow get you into heaven. You can't get in on their ticket. But you can get one of your own today. Jesus paid your way with His life.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - When Trust Is Lost - #4002
That's what happened when all the questions about an accounting firm's integrity arose - trust was lost. And when trust is lost, sometimes all is lost. Not just for companies, but for individuals, too. That's why it's so important that you and I make integrity and honesty our non-negotiable bottom line in everything we do or say.
