Not mentioned in the video: - Seeking help from others in times of need - Going to therapy and actually fixing your own problems instead of letting yourself stagnate until it becomes too much - Instances of ab*se that go unnoticed because the victim thinks they are enduring it for God - People who seek out suffering unhealthily because they believe it will solve their problems or make people feel sorry for them - People who justify their bad behaviour/views by claiming that they are being persecuted by those who oppose them (which is common in our privileged society)
Do you know any other stories about how Saints overcame temptation? Leave a comment telling us!
There is a story about St. Benedict throwing himself in the thornbushes to escape severe temptation.
St. Benedict and St. Francis of the Assisi
After wondering how St. John was able to make that statement... I became aware that it is all about foolishness. Thanks for your video, sir!

I’m more a person glass half full and prefer to be like the emperor Saint Henry II of Germany. There are many kings who were saints.
True! :)
