Biting the Stone

Often when someone throws a rock at a dog, rather than rushing at the person who threw the stone, the dog will run and bite the stone. We do the same thing. The tempter uses someone else to tempt us, either in word or deed, and, rather than deal with the tempter, who threw the stone, we bite the rock, our fellow man that the hater of the good used against us.

~ Elder Amphilochios
