Episode 53 -- Imitation of Christ III.15 -- On How We Ought to Prayer and Act In Regard to Our Desires

We read about the need to be careful about our desires. Due to original sin, not all of our desires are from the Holy Spirit. Not all the sudden inspirations are from above. We have to sift through our desires. We have to consult the Lord as to whether He really wants this or that activity from us. His food was to do the will of His Father in Heaven. Our food must be to do the will of the Lord Jesus. Through Him, we are brought to the Father in the Holy Spirit.
