Wisdom from Modern Orthodox Elders
“There is no way he can know the human heart! Only God has knowledge of our hearts and sometimes He reveals what is in our hearts to those who belong to Him for our own good. The devil knows only the mischief and evil that he himself plans in the hearts of those who serve and listen to him; he does not know our good thoughts. Sometimes he figures it out from experience; but even then he usually misses the point. He can only succeed if God permits; otherwise using the dark and constantly all target; visibility – zero!”
(Elder Paisios in ‘With Pain and Love’)
