To please God, we should listen to our conscience. Our conscience helps us to distinguish between right and wrong. Our inner voice, or conscience, is a gift from God that helps us to do his will.
If we listen to our conscience, we will be able to act with honesty and fairness. On the other hand, if we ignore our conscience, we will continue on the path of sin and be separated from God.
When we face any temptation, our conscience is the first thing that helps us to identify right and wrong.
Listening to our conscience requires regular self-examination and prayer. Through this, we are guided by the Holy Spirit and God increases us in His knowledge with which we can make the right decisions in life.
Our conscience is a tool given by God that helps us to live righteously. With it, we can solve complex issues in life and remain steadfast in our faith even when going through difficult situations.
