527. Скорби – неизменный удел всех людей

Machine translation from the original · Show original
Sister in the Lord, M. Fevronia! You describe your sorrows and mistakes. God will forgive for mistakes, in negligence we must force ourselves to correct ourselves, and we must endure sorrows - this is the unchangeable lot of all people. The nun turns away from you, that’s good. And here you also reproach yourself like this: what kind of person are you when people turn away from you, not tolerating your spiritual stench of sins, and even more so, you, poor Fenya, are stinking and disgusting to God. Arise from the depths of your soul, repent, pray and cry - this is where correction can happen. Where there is self-reproach, there is humility, there is salvation. I humble myself, and the Lord save me. God help me. It is not useful for the parents of their son to force him to take such and such a bride. The main choice of the bride should be on the side of the groom, because he should live with her. Peace to all and God's blessing. You might be interested in:
