Spiritual obedience …
March 16th, 2006 ~ Orthodox perspectiveSpiritual obedience is necessary in daily life. Prefer the will of another to your own. Accept with a positive attitude everything your spiritual father, or your brother or sister, asks of you. In this way, little by little an atmosphere will be created iwthin you and around you in which your heart will become very gentle, very sensitive to every inner movement, to every spiritual variation.
