It’s slowly becoming
And what’s a word to say or a thought to think of? Yes, but one thought will
bring another, and one thought will bring another, one retreat will bring
another, and so, little by little, man falls into passions.
That’s how you get close
As people draw near to God, they draw near to each other. And again, as they
draw nearer to each other, so they draw nearer to God.
Abbas Dorotheos
