God's wacky sense of humor

I'm in Orlando this week for a conference that we're holding about online retail. Before a reception and dinner tonight, I found an hour to go to the fitness center, in keeping with my New Year's resolutions. I was on my way back, thinking to myself how good it felt to burn off all of those unnecessary calories and making a mental note (for the zillionth time) that I will not let that half-hour on the treadmill and those hundred or so crunches go to waste by eating garbage. No sir.

I walked into my hotel room and see this [right], an entire lunchbox full of candy and two bottles of soda (one root beer and one orange) waiting for me on the desk. I'm pretty sure I said out loud, "You have GOT to be kidding me." I don't even know who they're from since there was no note. How am I supposed to turn down Bit O' Honey? They're my favorite!

If I didn't know any better, I'd think these treats were from the good Lord himself. Didn't He have a few things to say about temptation? If this was a test, I imagine God is really getting a kick out of it.
