A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

True escape from the world is for a person to know how to control his tongue, wherever he might be.

Do not seek to find the cause of temptations or whence they come; only pray to suffer them with gratitude.

Prayer... by its action it is the reconciliation of man with God, the mother and daughter of tears, a bridge for crossing temptations, a wall of protection from afflictions, a crushing of conflicts, boundless activity, the spring of virtues, the source of spiritual gifts, invisible progress, food of the soul, the enlightening of the mind, an axe for despair, a demonstration of hope, the release from sorrow.

The way of humility is this: self-control, prayer, and thinking yourself inferior to all creatures.

Unless a man keeps the commandments of God, he cannot progress, even in a single virtue.
