Whatever we prefer to God, we make it into a god for ourselves.
Given that, don’t wage your Christian struggle with sermons and arguments, but with true love.
We live in a world of a new form of slavery, in which we believe in the power of our own mind and that’s why we forget to love. Christ is love, love is a person and those who want anything other than Christ, don’t know what they want.
We worship our minds and, precisely through this process, we destroy others. Let’s not forget to reflect, to unwind, to see the beauty in others. Otherwise we’ll commit the most masterful cultural suicide in the history of mankind.
Based on Saint Cyprian of Catharge, Saint Porfyrios the Athonite
