On Prayer

17 June2026

 

Whether, therefore, we receive what we ask for, or do not receive it, let us still continue steadfast in prayer. For to fail in obtaining the desires of our heart, when God so wills it, is not worse than to receive it; for we know not as He does, what is profitable to us.

The Body of Christ

7 June2026

 

If you want to help the Church, it is better to try to correct yourself, rather than be looking to correct others. If you manage to correct yourself, one small part of the Church is immediately corrected. Naturally, if everyone did the same, the body of the Church would be in good health.”

Death

1 June2026

 

Death is not scary for those who wait on the Lord. Scary is the one who lives as if there is no eternity.

 

        St. Theophan the Recluse
