Fr. Arsenie:
Brothers and sisters, I lived in communist prisons [for his Christian faith], I lived in wilderness [as a hermit], but I did not benefit so deeply and real as I did in front of many deathbeds… screams, they were seeing themselves entering the unknown, they were not ready…
They just wanted to live one more day!
And we, those who waste years like a day, we say: “How much can one do in a day?”
I say, “not a day, but a moment, and it is very important!”
I repeat, God doesn’t need our words, but our hearts! [Proverbs 23:26]

as an orthodox christian, do I have to live in a monastery for the rest of my life in order to be saved? this is a serious question i am sick of the western system and i dont feel happy being here around full of sin and corruption, living a life here as a christian is really hard, there are everywhere unbelievers around me blaspheming that I even sometimes begin to doubt the existence of God, and when this happens I pray so hard and focus hard on God again and His presence is back again, the devil is attacking me constantly, Lord Jesus forgive me when that happens its really really hard, i still love those people though, please someone help me
Excellence🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Rather puts things in the proper perspective! If we could only live, one day at a time, with God, we would indeed have the right perspective, and hold the right values, praising the Lord at all times. Thsnk you and God bless
