A good saying:

"Before sin, Satan will speak softly and gently ~ encouraging us to yield to the temptation.
Before sin, God will shout at us ~ helping us to not sin. After sin, Satan will yell at us ~ saying things that make us feel guilty and accusses us of failure. After sin, God will speak softly and gently ~ telling us that His grace is sufficient and that He loves us!
Listen carefully and you can hear God's voice ~ shouting at us because he wants to protect us and whispering to us because he knows that we need His love and grace."
