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

In detachment, the spirit finds quiet and repose for coveting nothing. Nothing wearies it by elation, and nothing oppresses it by dejection, because it stands in the center of its own humility.

The saints’ freedom from envy is a wonderful phenomenon. The saints not only did not allow envy to conquer their hearts, but exerted themselves greatly to ensure that their friends be exalted and they themselves debased.

The self-indulgent are distressed by criticism and hardship; those who love God by praise and luxury.

Beware of envy. Wherever there is envy, God's spirit does not exist.
