In times of affliction, unceasingly call out to the merciful God in
prayer. The unceasing invocation of the name of God in prayer is a treatment
for the soul which kills not only the passions, but even their very operation.
As a doctor finds the necessary medicine, and it works in such a way that the
sick person does not understand, in just the same way the name of God, when you
call upon it, kills all the passions, although we don’t know how this happens.
Saint Barsanuphius the Great
