And lead us not into temptation but
deliver us from the evil one
When one is younger, one struggles with
avoiding bad things which are enticing. When one is older, the
struggle is avoiding what is good.
At age 59 I have a tendency to
withdraw, or to merely do what I've always been doing.
Our Lord has better things for us than
do our desires. And it is not merely our flesh, but it is Satan that
would have us do less than what we ought.
May we ask our Lord each day for
strength to pursue the better way.
