Did You Speak Badly About Someone? Bless that Person!

25 Apr 2016

Were you envious? Pray for the good of the person whom you envied. Confess every sin, without hiding anything, to your spiritual father or to a faithful, pious and honest abbot; keep God’s commandments and you shall save your soul.

Man is not saved without a wilful struggle

23 Dec 2015

The seed does not grow without water or earth and man is not saved without wilful struggles. Like rain does not fall without clouds, neither man cannot be pleasing to God and be saved without a clean conscience and good deeds.
