The bible speaks a lot about temptations and avoiding them at all costs. As many of us know, Jesus, as a human was tempted by satan himself and He (Jesus) took no part in it…There were a lot of "good" rewards in store for Jesus if He were to just follow satan, but He (Jesus) knew what was right and did not let His human flesh get in the way of His relationship with His Father.
Much like Jesus in human form, we are tempted day in and day out, but we must do our best to stay strong. Fight the temptations, the wants, the temporary fixes and remember what's truly important, that is a strong relationship with God and a pure heart.
Although I have never met Jesus face to face, I can only imagine there is NOTHING on earth that feels as good as seeing a smile on His face, because He knows and we know that we did the right thing; we made our Papa proud.
