How does temptation affect us?

As old as humanity itself is temptation. The Devil has been trying to trick people into doing bad things since the beginning of time. 

 However, one thing is still true: he can only suggest, trick, and influence people; he cannot make them commit evil. We always have the final say in every matter.  

Despite his constant temptation, the Devil fails. The devil has attempted to lead many astray numerous times, but I have always been forewarned by an inner voice.

 This voice is perceived by the devil as a "gossiper" since it reveals every malicious scheme before it is carried out. There's always the silent cautionary tale: "Avoid temptation." This is a trap. Unfortunately, a lot of people disregard this caution and place the responsibility for their problems on the devil. 

 However, knowledge instructs us:

 "Each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust and greed." 

 This implies that temptation exists, but it only succeeds when we give in to our impulses, whether they be selfish, prideful, or greedy.
