Четверг

“Haughty spirits go before a fall” (“evil thoughts”) (Prov. 16:18). Therefore, do not allow evil thoughts, and there will be no falls. Meanwhile, what is the most neglected thing? About thoughts. They are allowed to seethe as much and as much as they like, and there is no thought of ever taming them or directing them to reasonable pursuits. Meanwhile, in this inner turmoil, the enemy approaches, puts evil in the heart, deceives him and inclines him to this evil. And a person, without noticing it, is ready for evil. All that remains for him is either to fulfill the evil bound by his heart or to fight. But our grief is that almost no one takes up the latter, and everyone, as if bound, is led to evil.
