304. Старайся прогонять леность. Об умеренности в еде и сне. Страсти истребляются не в уединении, а среди людей

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. I wish you spiritual salvation. I received your letter. God bless you for your congratulations on fasting. May God help you spend this time for the salvation of your soul. You write that laziness has overtaken you. Lord help me to get rid of it and have zeal for every good deed, and especially for obedience and prayer. Try to drive away laziness and ask the Lord for help. You don't need to sleep a lot, just 6 hours. Otherwise, too much sleep can make your body weaker. Eat in moderation, without excess. You also write that Mother won’t let you in. Well, be patient, apparently God doesn’t like it. When God pleases, then they will release you. If you don’t have reverence for a shrine, it’s not good. We must try to treat the shrine with reverence. One lived and did not change for the better, because solitude is not good for you. Passions are destroyed not in solitude, but among people, when you humble yourself before everyone, obey, reject your will, consider yourself worse than everyone else and endure insults. Peace to you and God's blessing. You might be interested in:
