Quote for the Night: The Clean Mind

[Shin]

'The clean mind sometimes God himself comes into and teaches, sometimes the holy angelic powers suggest the right things, sometimes the vision of the nature of things. . . But to participate or not in His goodness and wisdom, depends to the will of the creatures who have reason.'

'Do not dishonor your conscience, perfectly instructing you always. Because she suggests you the divine and angelic opinion, she sets you free from the hidden infections of the heart and she gives you uprightness before God when you depart.'

St. Maximos the Confessor
