You Can Win

"Thank God when you are victorious. Pray three Hail Marys each ay for purity and take your Rosary to bed with you and keep praying it until you fall asleep. Build up your resistance through little mortifications, by frequent Confession and more frequent Holy Communion. Above all keep telling yourself that you can overcome temptations because God is on your side. 'God is faithful and will not permit you to be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also give you a way out that you may be able to bear it.'" 1 Cor. 10, 12.


Prayer for Patience

When anything happens contrary to your will, quietly say:
Mary, please help me!
or Lord, please make me interruptible!
