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

Control the tongue, so that it will not utter empty words. Whoever preserves his tongue, preserves his soul from grief.

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

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.

Consider, Christian, what vows you made and to Whom. It is a grievous thing to lie to a man; how incomparably more grievous it is to lie to God.

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.

True escape from the world is for a person to know how to control his tongue, wherever he might be.

Nothing causes a man to sin so often as his tongue.
