The Quest for Holiness
Holiness comes only to those who struggle.
Not an hour should pass without taking time to examine
our heart, for the hour of judgement can come at any time, and we must be ready
to give account to God for our life. When we practice examination of the heart,
we do so with the knowledge that there is no spiritual improvement if we do not
seek to please God with holiness of life. If we find good in our deeds, we must
attribute it to God. If we find we've neglected our spiritual struggle, and
acted with foolish abandon, we must turn to God in repentance. Each moment of
each hour we must resolve to turn ourselves around, and with God's help, fight
against the enemy of our souls. Holiness comes only to those who struggle.
With love in Christ,
Abbot
Tryphon
