“The Lord is present everywhere, and nothing happens without His will or His permission, either in this life or in eternity. When we accept this idea, everything is made easier.”

“He who lives according to God’s will has no worries. When he needs something, he simply prays for it. If he does not receive that which he asked for, he is joyful as though he had received it. A soul that has given itself over to God has no fear of anything, not even robbers, sickness, or death. Whatever happens, such a soul always cries, “It was the will of God.”

“This is how we must live—controlling our thoughts. It is not good to dwell on every thought that comes to us; otherwise we lose our peace. If we learn to refuse such proposals, we are quiet.”

“When God wanted to create fish, He spoke to the sea. When God wanted to create trees, He spoke to the earth. But when God wanted to create man, He turned to Himself. “Let Us make man in Our image and in Our likeness”. If you take a fish out of the water it will die; and when you remove a tree from the earth, it will also die. Likewise, when man is removed from God, he dies. ~author unknown”
― A Priest Of The Oriental Church, Elements - PART I - EARTH: The Transfiguration of Elijah
