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

A wise elder gives the following advice to monks and youth alike: 'Avoid eating foods which are to your liking, but, preferably, eat the simplest foods, and be thankful to God, Who also sends you these.'

During a time of disturbance and warfare of thoughts, one should lessen a little even the ordinary quantity of food and drink.

Each Christian, especially a priest, should follow in example the goodness of the Lord, that everyone should be invited to partake of the Lord's food at your table. The miser is an enemy of the Lord.

Vanity is eliminated by acting secretly, and pride by ascribing to God all that is well done.
