Let Christ Heal Your Soul

“For Christ is the Doctor of souls, and he knows everything and applies the right remedy for every sickness. For example: for vainglory, the commandment about humility;  for love of pleasure, temperance; for avarice, almsgiving. In short, each disease of the soul has a commandment which is its appropriate remedy, so that the Doctor is not inexperienced, nor again are the remedies old and impotent, for Christ’s commands never go stale. Therefore, there is no impediment to the soul’s healing except its own unruliness.” (Dorotheos of Gaza, Discourses & Sayings : Desert Humor and Humility, pg. 173)
