“The light of your face has shone upon us, O Lord.” (Ps. 4:7)
“In the light of the glory of your face, O Lord, we will walk forever” (Ps. 88:16b-17a)
With the “binoculars” of the heart I see that boundless Light, which no mind can comprehend
Holy Elder Galaktia of Crete
Whoever feels a little, a little of the Light of God, the love of God, later loves the whole world. He prays for the whole world. You see what God is and what you are. You weep for your sins afterwards. I know nothing else. (p. 120)
When I weep and groan for my sins, my heart deepens. I sigh from the depths of my soul and I am relieved. The wish runs, runs… and, in an unexpected time, I don’t know how, with the “binoculars” of the heart I see that boundless Light, which no mind can contain and no tongue can tell.
No one can describe the greatness of the sky! The sky hides many mysteries. The Light is boundless, it has no beginning, middle and end. It is unformed, uniform.
It is full of information. Many inexplicable things are explained within it. Some you can tell, but most you can’t. It is the Light of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit….
The Holy Spirit is not seen. It is Light! He came into the world and did not leave. He moves with a loud bang, but no one hears it! It passes by everyone constantly, but it encamps where there is repentance.
The divine things are fragrant. They bring peace, tranquility and paradise to the soul and control over our messes. I see in the Light that God is everything and I am nothing. (pp. 117-118)
