Knowing our deformations
Dr. Roberto MirandaIt requires a very lucid awareness of the unknown forces that continually struggle within us. The human subconscious is a bottomless sea. Many of the actions that affect our lives come out of it, many times without us being able to realize it.
We have to ask the Holy Spirit for a very deep and incisive ability to discern those structural flaws, those “Achilles tendons” of our character that, like invisible cracks running along a wall, endanger our stability and permanence. We all have those flaws. In many cases we will not be able to eliminate them entirely, and we will only be able to control them and keep them under discipline throughout our lives.
