Chastity

“He who has resolved to contend with his flesh and conquer it himself struggles in vain. For unless the Lord destroys the house of flesh and builds the house of the soul, the man who desires to destroy it has watched and fasted in vain.”
St. John Climacus

For Reflection:
How can I build “the house” of my soul so that I may overcome any temptation to sin against chastity? What are three specific ways I can employ beginning now?
(See tomorrow’s Grace Line for one saint’s suggestion.)
