Our greatest enemies …

May 4th, 2006 ~ Orthodox perspective

“Our greatest enemies are the demons, who fight to conquer us through our passions. The most powerful weapon against all of their evil machinations, snares and arrows is humility. They are the creatures of pride, and are able to conquer those who — in their own pride — think that they can do battle with them. However, the demons cannot stand up against humility.”

– Macarius of Optina
