475. Послушнице Евфимии Шинкаревой. 1908–1910. Без искушений и греха нельзя прожить. Надо стараться не слушать помыслов и творить Иисусову молитву

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. Novice Evfimiya Shinkareva! I received your letter. If there is something on your soul that weighs on it, then you don’t need to hide it, but it’s better to humble yourself and repent, then it will be easier for your soul. It is impossible to live without temptation and without sin, but you must repent, and the Lord will forgive. And if thoughts torment you, you also need to open them. Try not to listen to thoughts and say the Jesus Prayer. Don’t judge people, consider yourself worse than everyone else, and try not to talk too much. May the Lord help you in your obedience. Peace to you and God's blessing. You might be interested in:
