He looks at the heart. The way we regard others can be loving and respecting of their<br />
dignity, or it can cause us to sin. Jesus told us that the sin of adultery includes what is<br />
in our hearts.<br />
B. Lead a discussion about the importance of guarding our eyes and hearts from images<br />
that lead us to temptation, including those that objectify the human body. Give<br />
students a few moments of silence to reflect on the ways their eyes might lead them<br />
to sin. Do they look at others’ possessions with envy? Do they spend hours shopping<br />
online, looking at things they want to possess? Do their eyes lead them to habitually<br />
overeat? Do they seek out inappropriate videos?<br />
C. Conclude the activity by leading a prayer for God to grant us clean hearts and help us<br />
turn away from temptation. Explain that part of guarding our hearts means knowing<br />
our own weaknesses, and praying for grace.<br />
