St. Seraphim (Chichagov)
Let no one dream of being good and serving God as he should unless he rids himself of self-pity and fights not only against great passions, but also against small ones.
Ariadna Nefedkina
There is a place for God even in the most turbulent flow of life.
The success of spiritual struggle, true repentance, and correction of our shortcomings depends on the habit of listening to and looking closely at the movements and desires of the heart.
Fr. James Guirguis
The Lord in speaking this parable reminds us that we have a part to play in our own salvation.
Bishop Pakhomy of Pokrovsk and Nikolaevka
Commemorating this holy icon, we turn to the Mother of God, asking Her to protect us from troubles and give us strength. But do we fully understand what it means to entrust ourselves to Her care?
