Sensitive people must be very careful of self-accusation ( St. Paisios )


Sensitive people must be very careful of self-accusation, because the devil tries to convert it into despair (through hypersensitivity).

Self-accusation must always be accompanied by hope in God. When someone feels anxiety in this case, he must realize that the evil one has his tail in it.


St. Paisios

A God-loving mind ( St. Anthony the Great )


 
The eye sees the visible while the mind comprehends the invisible. A God-loving mind is the light of the soul. A person who has a God-loving mind has an enlightened heart and can perceive God with the mind.

St. Anthony the Great
