Elder Arsenie Papacioc: Words of advice
The most important advice: love, love, love with all your heart, and…forgive.
I will tell you this as a spiritual father: God is not as upset when we make mistakes, as much as he is upset when we are careless.
He who prays only when he prays, doesn't pray.
If only youth knew; if only old age could…
A young person needs to be a great hero for Christ.
Is there anyone who has nothing to ask from God?
We need to know how to die and resurrect every day.
God doesn't need words, excuses, explanations; He needs our hearts.
The most important advice: love, love, love with all your heart, and…forgive.
The concept of other religions differs from Christianity in that they want to escape suffering. In Orthodoxy, you can only escape suffering through suffering.
Being rich is not a sin, and being poor is not a virtue.
If you are not able to love your enemies, at least don't hate them; that way, you step out of the puddle and find yourself on the first step.
Humility is the art of staying in your place.
Learn to always have a smile hidden in your heart.
There is nothing rational in love. "I don't know why I love that person!" Love has no beginning and no end; it exists at the same time as God.
Nothing helped me in life as much as suffering. Only suffering is the supreme School of Theology. I am convinced that angels are jealous of us because they don't have this suffering beyond our nature.
