Discern between things visible and spiritual
Grant
me, O Lord, to know what I ought to know, to love what I ought to love, to
praise what delights Thee most, to value what is precious in Thy sight, to hate
what is offensive to Thee. Do not suffer me to judge according to the sight of
my eyes, nor to pass sentence according to the hearing of the ears of ignorant
people; but to discern with a true judgment between things visible and
spiritual, and above all, always to inquire what is the good pleasure of Thy
will.
- Thomas a Kempis
