Humility And Contrition

There is absolutely no point of even trying to live even remotely as a 'Christian' while harbouring either aggressive or hostile fantasies. And if this is true of those who even loosely apply this moniker to themselves, it is doubly so for those who are serious about encountering God. Retirement into solitude is simply a farce if you carry any criticism of others and inner argumentation with you. Indeed, ...cut off all contention concerning every matter, and weep and mourn for the time has come. (Abba Muthues)

A broken and a contrite heart, these, O God, you will not despise.

- Psalm 51:17
