The ashes and the spark
27 August 2018
The passions cover Divine Grace, just as ash covers the spark.
With asceticism and prayer, however, the heart is cleansed of the passions, the spark of divine grace is rekindled and the faithful feel Christ in their heart, which is the centre of their existence.
