Temptations...

Painting by Willem Odekerken

"Keep in mind the method used to make copper objects shine.  You smear them with mud after which they will shine like gold.  Temptations are like mud for the soul.  They serve to make the virtues, which are opposed to these temptations, to shine forth."
St. Therese of Lisieux
