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

A man who submits to the statutes of the fathers, reaches his goal before he has made a single step.

He who fears God will pay careful attention to his soul and will free himself from communion with evil.

If you lay down rules for yourself, do not disobey yourself; for he who cheats himself is self-deluded.

We are sons of God or of Satan according to whether we conform to goodness or to evil.

The person who listens to Christ fills himself with light; and if he imitates Christ, he reclaims himself.

Concern for one's soul means hardship and humility, for through these God forgives us all our sins.

It is an insult to the intelligence to be subject to what lacks intelligence and to concern itself with shameful desires.

Patience increases obedience to the Divine words that have been written, are being written, and will be written.

Break the bonds of your friendship for the body and give it only what is absolutely necessary.

Patience must grow and not diminish, because when it diminishes sin increases in the life of man, evil results.

The person who is unaffected by the things of this world loves stillness; and he who loves no human thing loves all men.

The adversary will sit in the temple of Jerusalem, in order to show himself as Christ, he will demand that those who are captivated by him should worship him as Christ. The Antichrist will demand worship as if he were God.

According to the degree to which the intellect is stripped of the passions, the Holy Spirit initiates the intellect into the mysteries of the age to be.

A wise man is one who pays attention to himself and is quick to separate himself from all defilement.

Whoever has not seen Christ in this life will not see Him in the next. The capability of seeing God is attained through work on oneself in this life.

Strive to love every man equally, and you will simultaneously expel all the passions.

Just as desire and rage multiply our sins, so self-control and humility erase them.
