Overcoming lust

[Andy The Wizard]

I have recently returned to Christ after some years of being an atheist. I had quit watching porn and other such things and I thought I had overcome my lust.

Sadly, I have not.

I sometimes talk to a Christian woman at work during lunch and for the past couple of days she inadvertantly did something immodest and I lusted after her. I know I am accountable for my own sin but is there a tactful way I could say something to her. She is a Christian woman and wouldn't do anything like that on purpose.

Please don't berate me. I know this is my issue but is there anything I could say?

Honestly, it is not really your place to say something. It kind of depends what she did, but unless it is something really inappropriate, you should let it go and focus on yourself. If something needs to be said because she keeps doing it, find a woman in your Christian circle that can gently let her know that she inadvertently is being immodest.
