Holy Apostle James, Brother of the Lord

441. Для спасения души надо трудиться. Живя в монастыре, без особой надобности ездить к родным не следует

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. I received your letter. You write that you live carelessly. Why is this so? If you live carelessly, you may end up in eternal damnation. And if you want to save your soul, then you have to work. We must be more humble and not judge others, have obedience to everyone; You need to pray to God and go to church. But if you don’t get used to bad things, then it’s not a good thing. We also need to celebrate the 500th anniversary. There is no need to go to your relatives if there is no special need. Otherwise, perhaps, Mother Superior will be angry at this, but whatever happens. Live in a monastery, work, pray to God, and leave your family behind. Pray to God for them, and nothing more. Peace to you and God's blessing. You might be interested in:
