Episode 15 -- Spiritual Combat c10.1 -- Controlling Our Will
While I can see the need to regulate my understanding, why do I need to control my will?
In this episode, we move to Scupoli’s advice about controlling our will.
Understanding: higher knowing power of the soul
Will: higher accepting and desiring power of the soul.
The will enables us to love and choose. We are trying to conform our will to God’s will, to want what he wants us to want. Not my will, but yours be done, Jesus said to His Father during the Agony.
