Word

Watch yourselves - your passions especially - in your home life, where they
appear freely, like moles in a safe place.


St. John of Kronstadt


I would just add (if I dare) that it is also here where they may do the most damage to those who must suffer them along with us.

Indeed...I've been thinking lately that in this day and age when everyone freely expresses their opinions, sometimes the best thing to do is keep quiet and pray...or as Jesus might say, "well done thou good and faithful servant, you could have said any number of incredibly stupid and hurtful things, but you kept your yap shut..." Best regards.

What true words these are, like a mirror for me to see my own self and experience in. Lord have mercy.

Thank you for sharing.
