Peace of mind, is a great sign of the presence of the Holy Spirit in one. It isn’t that one is silent outwards, but “battling demons,” on the inside. Perspective is everything. I am not a teacher, but a student of every moment, and it’s invigorating to read once own words and learn from them too. How does one observe their conduct? Seeing the world from a Biblical perspective, and memorizing The Fruits of The Spirit, comparing them with one’s own conduct. Gentleness, replacing aggressiveness, etcetera. Learning, is an inward process, spreading out. It’s funny when you experience life. Like this one quote I came across said that “he who looks outside fantasizes, but inside, creates.” Let us not give up, or be silent, brothers/sisters. Philosophy can explain a lot, but everything done without God is like a water pitcher with holes in it.
