"The enemy likes to hide the truth and to mix good with evil. But how can one " find out the truth? God's goodwill and all our intentions are meek, full of good hope, and undoubting. Not only in our good deeds, but also in our lawlessness, God endures long with meekness and awaits our repentance. And how can one distinguish the impulse of the enemy? The enemy usually hinders us and turns us away from good. However, if in anything which apparently is good, the mind is disturbed and causes us disturbance, banishes the fear of God, deprives us of calmness, so that without any reason the heart aches and the mind wavers, then know that this is an impulse from the enemy and cut it off." St. Paisius Velichkovsky. "Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!" Psalm 105:4 Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
