Status Updates From Spiritual Discernment

"Patience is not the hallmark of Christianity, only praise is."

"At the moment when the mind begins to think of questionable things and to wander, the first step of control is to discern, to see the condition of the mind in the light of God.

Then, begin to prove under the light received what are the permissible, even acceptable, thoughts of God."
