Resisting temptation
TKC!
“Remember that it is not feeling of guilt that constitutes sin but the consent to sin. Only the free will is capable of good or evil. But when the will sighs under the trial of the tempter and does not will what is presented to it, there is not only no fault but there is virtue.” St. Padre Pio
Feeling tempted is not sinful; consciously consenting is when you cross the line. Temptation can be a golden opportunity to grow in virtue and holiness.
