TOB: Live it Out - Week 11

Submitted by Suchi Myjak on

Tell the truth with your body.

Reject the counterfeits of lust and fleeting pleasure and build your relationships on the truth you have discovered. Remember these wise words of John Paul II: "Deep within yourself, listen to your conscience which calls you to be pure. ... A home is not warmed by the fire of pleasure which burns quickly like a pile of withered grass. Passing encounters are only a caricature of love; they injure hearts and mock God's plan." Don't allow yourself to be pressured into lowering your standards. Don't cheapen yourself by using others or permitting yourself to be used. Practice purity and reap the rewards of authentic love.

Review the “Benefits of Pure Living” handout frequently, especially if you are facing pressures to compromise your integrity. This will help convince your feelings to act in accord with reason.
