The golden rule for understanding in spiritual matters is not intellect, but obedience.

Certain things can only be dealt with by ignoring them; if you face them you increase their power. It is absurd to say, Pray about them; when once a thing is seen to be wrong, don't pray about it, it fixes the mind on it; never for a second brood on it, destroy it by neglect.

Never become attached to anything that continues to hurt God. For you to be free of it, God must be allowed to hurt whatever it may be.

The great enemy of the life of faith in God is not sin, but the good which is not good enough. The good is always the enemy of the best.
