How to have temperance? Christanon 07/07/18 (Sat) 23:41:33 bbaa8a No.672057

How can I increase my temperance?

Maybe the obvious answer, but observe lent. Purpose of fasting IS to gain temperance and patience.

Observe the Friday fast.

Observe the pre-Mass midnight fast (i.e. where you eat and drink nothing until the receipt of communion the next day).

Maybe even throw in the Wednesday fast and a Saturday fast in honour of Our Lady.

Alos, try generally to pick away little things in your diet.

Simple, increase your asceticism. Fast more, pray more.

Old story: Bishop goes to old learned monk. "How do I generate a revival?" Old monk replies: "It's simple. Prolonged prayer and fasting."

All the basic things people preach non-stop.

>charity and giving yourself to others

>reading scripture and tradition

>praying

>fasting

>involve yourself in a Christian community and do all of the above with them

It can be hard but God did not make it complicated.

Asceticism, asceticism, asceticism.

It means training lad, so get training.
