You don't have to give in to temptation

Written for the Sentinel

Temptation seems to be a favorite topic for the writers of fiction and TV dramas these days. More often than not, the victim gives in to the temptation, rationalizing his weakness with the help of Freudian psychology and "the new morality." However, through personal experience I learned that with God's help, temptation can be overcome.

It was a new job and also a very challenging one. I was the only woman working with a group of men. Since there was a great deal I had to learn in a hurry, I found myself under enormous pressure.

One of the men seemed to be particularly sensitive to my plight. He was in a position to offer me a great deal of help. We found we had much in common—our background, our interests.
