Questions for reflection on Lust and Chastity:
  1. What effect does media (TV, Internet, music, magazines) have on your struggle with lust?
  2. Have you ever fasted? How might dealing with the desire for food affect your sexual desire?
  3. Reflect on the following poem by Samuel Smiles:
Sow a thought, reap an act.
Sow an act, reap a habit.
Sow a habit, reap a character.
Sow a character, reap a destiny.
  • Have you noticed this in your life?
