Память Божия
Machine translation from the original · Show original
All life passes in vanity. The mind walks in the midst of vain thoughts and temptations. But gradually he will learn to remember God in such a way that in vanity and troubles, without thinking, he will think, without remembering, to remember Him. I just wish I could walk without stopping. As long as you have this striving forward, do not be afraid, your boat is intact and under the shadow of the cross it is sailing on the sea of life. He is safe - and there is no need to be afraid of possible everyday storms. No ordinary voyage, much less the journey of life, is complete without bad weather.
But life’s adversities and storms are not scary for those who march under the cover of the saving prayer: “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.” They are not scary, as long as you don’t fall into despondency, for despondency gives rise to despair, and despair is already a mortal sin. If you happen to sin, believe in God’s mercy, repent and move on without being embarrassed.
