“Do everything calmly and peacefully. Do as much as you can as well as you can. Strive to see God in all things without exception, and consent to His will joyously.

“The saints are like the Lord, but so are all people who keep the commandments of Christ; but those who live according to their own passions and do not repent are like the devil. I think that if this mystery were revealed to the world, then they would stop serving the devil, and every one would strive to serve the Lord with all his strength, and to be like Him.” PeopleIfsThinkingWorldInspirationalChristianPassionChristReligiousLordMysteryDevilStriveSaintOrthodoxServingCommandmentsRepent Author:Silouan the Athonite
“Many Christians backslide...They are unable to stand against the temptations of the world, or of their old nature. They strive to do their best to fight against sin, and to serve God, but they have no strength. They have never really grasped the secret: The Lord Jesus will every day from heaven continue His work in me. But on one condition-the soul must give Him time each day to impart His love and his grace. Time alone with the Lord Jesus each day is the indispensable condition of growth and power.” WorldGivingSoulChristianFightingJesusHeavenGrowthPrayerSinSecretLordGraceConditionsStriveTemptationEach DayServing GodIndispensableHis LoveMe AloneImpartAlone Time Author:Andy Murray
