Good Intentions

"I have seen and experienced in many ways that if the grace of God does not enlighten a person, no matter how much you speak to him, you cannot help him. For a moment he will listen, but then the next minute he is re-captivated by his old ways. If, however, grace acts at once through your words, a change occurs at that time with the help of his good intentions."
St. Joseph the Hesychast
