Elders and their sayings 2

Talking and not talking

The one who speaks because the Lord wants it, is doing fine. And the one who is silent, because the Lord wants it, is also doing fine.

Abba Poemen

The chastity of young people

The abstinence and chastity of the young people will be considered as a martyrdom of the moral sense.

St. Paisios the Hagiorate

The best counterattack

When you are attacked because someone doesn’t like you, the best method to deal with it, is not to be thinking about it but to pray.

St. Sofronios of Essex
