The love of talk

February 27
“The love of talk distracts all the powers of our soul from God and
fills them with earthly objects and impressions like a vessel of water
which cannot be clear and settled while you are continually
stirring the earthly particles from the bottom.”
-St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
Today's Reflection:
The powers of the soul are will, reason, and emotion. How can the
“love of talk” draw us away from God? To what extent have you seen
this to be true in yourself? What practical strategies can you use to
purge yourself of this tendency?
