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

A man is neither saved nor lost by the place he is in, but is saved or lost by his deeds. Neither a holy place nor a holy state is of use to him who does not fulfill the commandments of the Lord.

The intellect becomes a stranger to the things of this world when its attachment to the senses has been completely sundered.

Just as a moth devours clothing and a worm devours wood, so dejection devours a man’s soul.

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.

Fear God and keep His commandments both in your feelings and in your intellect. If you force yourself to keep them in your intellect, bit by bit you will attain to fulfilling them in your feelings.
