150. Через спор выходят большие неприязни. Тот велик пред Богом, кто смиренно уступает ближнему. Если находишь для себя болезнь полезной, не лечись у докторов

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. Sister Ustinia in the Lord! Your letter and 1 rub. I received 50 k. God bless you for your zeal for me, a great sinner, for your congratulations and wishes. You write: living in a cell, the three of us often argue and reproach each other. There is no need to argue, because sometimes great hostility emerges through argument. It is said: he is great before God who humbly yields to his neighbor, and God exalts the humble, and God humbles the proud and obstinate. You only need to reproach yourself, and not your neighbor, for your shortcomings. After prayer, you should not drink anything at night. If you find a disease useful for yourself, which serves you as an instrument of humility, then do not be treated by doctors, but ask more often: “Lord, give me patience, generosity and meekness and arrange what is useful for me.” We remember the repose of Terenty. Calling upon you the peace and blessing of God. You might be interested in:
