An Insight from a Desert Father

“The nature of water is soft, that of stone is hard; but if a bottle is hung about the stone, allowing the water to fall drop by drop, it wears away the stone. So, it is with the Word of God; it is soft, and our heart is hard, but the one who hears the Word of God often opens his heart to God.”  [Abba Poemen, Desert Monastic]

 

Today begin anew by being soft like water and hard like stone, then allow God’s Grace drop by drop to mold your will to God’s Will.

 

May God Be Praised.
