29 September 2021 Self Examination
Examine
yourself to see whether you have within you a strong sense of your own self
importance, or negatively, whether you have failed to realize that you are
nothing. This feeling of self-importance
is deeply hidden, but it controls the whole of our life. Its first demand is that everything should be
as we wish it, and as soon as this is not so we complain to God and are annoyed
with people.
Saint Theophane the Recluse (1815-1894)
