sin
 

Grieve for nothing but your sins

Do not raise your voice in anger to anybody because “the servant of the Lord must not strive” (2 Timothy 2:24).

Let us run from everything that troubles our mind

Causes of sin are: wine, women, wealth and the health of the body. Not that they are sins by nature, but they make that the nature easily incline towards sinful passions.

While we are alive, we can still make right our wrong deeds from the book of life

And as long as we have power over our book of life, written with our own hands, let us compel to write in it good things and remove the sins, the ones made in the previous life. While in this world, God seals neither the good nor the bad deeds, until the hour of departure, when we end up working in our homeland and move to another country.

Behind every pain there is a blessing

Pain is a bad thing, but behind it, behind the suffering and the test lies the blessing of God, the rebirth and the refashion of man and of family. Almost everyone owes their return to this aspect. Behind any trial there is God’s will and of course at that time we cannot see the benefit, but in time we will be able to see it. We have so many examples in this regard!

Spiritual peace – why some have it and others don’t

Money, fortune and all pleasure cannot give you peace and true joy, because they don’t offer anything to the soul. The peace of the soul can be brought only by its Creator. The true peace can be reached only by those who live their life with God. In peace live only those who love and keep the law of God, the psalmist said (Psalm 118: 165).

Don’t work without prayer!

There’s no other treasure more honest than prayer in our lives. This is why you should never let it aside, but as our Lord said, pray so that our struggle will not be in vain.

How do we plant the seed of prayer in our children’s heart?

While children are young, in our home there should be some rules that, as soon as our children grow up, should be reduced little by little, in order to give them some freedom.  

Women should listen to the man, if the head of man is Christ

“Women should fear men”, if the head of men is Christ, but if his head is sin and his god is his stomach, then she hasn’t any salvation advice to learn from him. Without Christ he is dead and the advice of the dead leads to death; you shall not go there! Don’t be afraid of the dead, don’t be afraid of those who don’t fear God. You should only fear sin, because this is what saints also feared.

The most important tears are those on our cheeks

In our everyday life we shed tears when we miss our mother, father, children, and wife and so on. But out of all tears, the most important ones are the tears shed when the man meets God and the tears of sunning passions.

Without self-sacrifice there is no salvation

Usually, when it comes about himself, man is always unfair and changes the scale; he is more rightful towards himself, he chooses the better, the biggest, and the most beautiful part: he cries and rejoices for himself more than for others. But, Christ crucified on the Cross the love for oneself, and gave His life for us.
