A Thought from St. John Chrysostom on Conscience

“As in severe frost all limbs are stiffened and dead, so truly the soul shuddering in the winter of sins also performs none of its proper functions, stiffened as it were by a frost on one’s conscience. For what cold is to the body, that an evil conscience is to the soul.”

From Homily VII on 2 Corinthians –

May we all avail ourselves of the Sacrament of Holy Confession during Great Lent; leading us to new life, flexibility and warmth.
