Patristic Quote for the Day

Sin has become a habit and has led me into utter ruin. Although I myself recognize my error and cease not to utter confessions, still I remain in sin. I look and do not see, because I sin even in repentance, for I do not endeavor to scrutinize my deeds. - St. Ephrem, the Syrian *A Spiritual Psalter* p. 118
