An old joke.
Martha was addicted to buying clothes and her husband John explained their finances couldn't survive her shopping sprees.
"I know!" Martha wailed. "I just can't help myself."
John made a suggestion: When you feel yourself about to buy an unnecessary dress, say, "Get thee behind me, Satan!"
So Martha did that but when she came home with another pricey new dress, John looked at her with disappointment.
She hurried to explain."I just trying on the dress. I didn't plan to buy it. When I saw how pretty it looked in the dressing room mirror, I said, firmly, "get thee behind me, Satan."
She sobbed. "And Satan said, "It looks wonderful from back here!"
