No good work is done anywhere without aid from the Father of Lights.

We must learn by experience to avoid either trains of thought or social situations which for us (not necessarily for everyone) lead to temptations. Like motoring-don't wait till the last moment before you put on the brakes but put them on, gently and quietly, while the danger is still a good way off.

Do not waste time bothering whether you "love" your neighbor; act as if you did.
