When you speak the truth of the scriptures you speak straight to my heart. Deep calls to deep. In the depths of my heart I see God and as the eyes of my heart and understand open I see God in everything and everyone for in Him we live and move and have our being. Thank you for sharing your heart Father.
Hes a great man. Very personable. I'm lucky I talk to him regularly. God bless!
Thank you for simplifying and making clear what can be an overwhelming subject.
Yes, I find this forgiveness the most pressing for peace of soul. It must be the driver of the struggle in these most pressing times. Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us.
So many good & helpful points. We can learn so much from those who have dedicated their lives to Christ through monastacism. Thank you for posting, & thank you Fr. Sergius.
God bless this man and the monastery .. Thanks for posting this

And it is worth ordering from the priest in the church to read the akathist for your name of St. Cyprian and St. Justine and of St. Archangel Michael against magic and all enemies visible and unvisible. This is if you are baptized Orthodox. There always were sorcerers even after Jesus said it is from devil they remaind in every country and on every second or third family something is put from a sorcerer. And when you intend to go to command the akathist in the church, such thoughts may appear: "Maybe tomorrow, or next week", "Maybe I'm such a freak and no one is watching me (girls or boys, if you can not anyways find a pair, or you can for some reason speak only with one girl or boy.)", "The life is this way with good times and bad times", " I am so (if you have impotence)". etc. These thoughts come from demons from sorcery spells because only the prayer of the priest can 100% protect from magic and enemies visible and invisible. Jesus Christ told the apostles(which are the first priests)"I give you the right to untie everything that is tied in heaven and on earth.". Faith and creed is opinion, is how somebody thinks with his head. Repent is changing and not auto-humiliation as many think. May be enherited soul ilnessses like despresia, schizofrenia, Tourette sindrom, insomnia, bifurcation of personality etc. as they are from soul illnesses. Firstly everyone must to eradicate schizofrenia, depression etc. from him and after that to planify making children, in order that they will not jump from balconie, have blood cancer, be born bodytobody joined twins or two headed and etc. These soul illnesses can be healed by eucharisty. In the afternoon before eucharist day you have to read " The prayers before eucharisty" where are asked from eucharisty such things like: soul and body healing, sins forgiveness, protection from devils etc. It is better to go to confession in the morning in the day of eucharisty(before eucharisty)because from evening to morning everyone can make the same sins again and again and also other bigger sins. If not to forgive someone who asked for forgiveness it is not worth going to eucharisty because the sins will not be forgiven. Humbleness is awareness that in every doing you can fall and not auto-oppresion as most do and think, someone without auto-oppression is 100% free in moves in every direction, it is like a lion at freedom .Entering(submersion 3 times with a certain prayer and crossing yourself)in water springs of orthodox saints (which are near or in monasteries) give very much power and sureness to people with depression, panic attacks, schizofrenia and other soul illnesses, there are some springs of mother of God Maria that even heal soul illnesses.
My son was just shot in his chest he had no time for anything, ??????????

Lord have mercy!
May his memory be eternal.
