Not sure if I’m interpreting the quote accurately, but if to avoid blame I must skip praise–I’ll happily do without 🙂
What A’ Kempis meant was that when we stop desiring praise from men and stop being afraid of men blaming us for things then our hearts will move towards peace.
Ah yes, I see it now–thanks much for clarifying!
