Prayer- conversation and reconciliation with God

Prayer is the conversation and union of man with God, strength of the world, mother of tears, cleansing of sins.

The cross of marriage

Family means bearing a cross, because in a time when less and less children are born, Christian parents, and especially mothers, are taking the responsibility of bearing in their wombs babies, as a blessing of God in their lives, a gift that they need to accept as a true blessing. We can talk about a cross of giving birth, raising, schooling and teaching, a cross of parents for their children. We could name all these “the cross of maternity” “the cross of giving birth” “cross”, “care” or “attention for education” and “cross of spiritual education”.

Make out of your soul a welcoming house for our Lord!

The light of God, given to us in abundance through the Holy Mysteries and services, personal prayer, Jesus’ prayer and the study of patristic books, they all aim towards the same target: to make out of us a durable house. Saints pray for us in heaven and interfere for us, but we should also make an effort to build our spiritual house on healthy, durable and untainted and holy grounds.

The light of Christ - the gift of our life

The most precious gift for our spiritual life is the light of Christ, the light of life. But for this gift we need to have spiritual eyes and spiritual sight. Without them, the light of Christ has no meaning to us.

If God wants you to become a wife, you will. Don’t insist for nothing!

If God wants you to be the wife of that man, you will no matter what.

The mutual prayer of spouses has great power before God

The mutual prayer of spouses is pleasant to God and is very powerful. Maybe for this reason, the devil tries to prevent you from praying together.

Can we understand the power of each event in our life?

Life is like a book. Its pages are the events in our life… There’s nothing in our life that wasn’t important, but often we just don’t understand it. Only the bright minds, enlighten by the grace of God can understand the meaning of each event.

We receive meekness and humbleness only when we truly wish for it

Nothing is more pleasant and gracious before God than meekness and humbleness.

Youth’s habits are the joy and guard of life

Young man! Be wise and cautious: pay attention from the years of your youth towards creating good habits! Habits have a similar power with that of natural characteristics: whoever is following the way of our Lord Jesus Christ is obliged to acquire good habits and beware of the bad ones.
