400. Усерднее и чаще молись за тех, к кому чувствуешь гнев. Близкие знакомства сильно мешают угождению Богу

I received your letter and prayed for you. You probably don’t know why there are more cliques and corrupted demoniacs, and that’s why you’re so foolishly giving in to anger. Pray harder and more often for those towards whom you will feel anger and resentment, otherwise you will easily perish. With patience and thanksgiving for everything to the Lord, you will be saved more easily. God forbid you get acquainted with monks, and also do not get acquainted with lay people, and in the monastery do not make close acquaintances, which greatly interferes with pleasing God. Seek first of all the Kingdom of God and the salvation of your soul, and the Lord will send everything necessary for existence in a timely manner. God bless you for the gift. Calling upon you the peace and blessing of God, I remain with sincere goodwill. You might be interested in:
