It’s
not owing to his own abilities that man can be cured. It is God who heals. You
should feel that your entire being is full of sin, full of darkness. If,
however, you resort to God, the Lord takes away the sin, the passions, the
darkness and the disease as well; He heals man and provides the light. But you
need to stand before God like this: “Whatever the cost may be, my God, make me
humble and let me truly repent. Make me come back to you, see the sin and turn
to you, who are the light and salvation”. If you speak like this, God saves
you.
***
When someone renounces himself and goes against
his will he, then, has nothing to take care of and is no longer afraid.
Everything is taken care of by God.
Archimandrite Symeon Kragiopoulos (+)
