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

The more you love money, the more securely you close the Kingdom of God.

The way to attain compunction is an attentive life. ‘The beginning of repentance comes from the fear of God and attention,’ as the holy martyr Boniface says.

The fathers say that a man who sets store by the gold and silver he can amass does not believe that there is a God who provides for him.

Compunction comes when you consider how much you have grieved God Who is so good, so sweet, so merciful, so kind, and entirely full of love; Who was crucified and suffered everything for us. When you meditate on these things and other things the Lord has suffered, they bring compunction.
