Psalms 139:7-10
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 8. If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. 9. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; 10. Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

Psalms 107:23-26
They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters; 24. These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep. 25. For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. 26. They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.

☦️🕯️No matter what bitterness has befallen you, no matter what unpleasantness has happened to you, say, "I shall endure this for Jesus Christ!" and it will be easier for you. For the name of Jesus Christ is powerful. Through it all unpleasantness is calmed, and demons disappear. Your disappointments will also
be calmed and your pusillanimity will be quieted. 🕯️☦️

Psalms 107:27-29
They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits’ end. 28. Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. 29. He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.

Psalms 107:30-32
Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven. 31. Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! 32. Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and praise him in the assembly of the elders.

Psalms 107:33-34
He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground; 34. A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

#Reflection #Original_Faith

When a man reads in a common way lines that contain great meaning, he makes his heart common and devoid of that holy power which gives the heart a most sweet taste through perceptions that awe the soul.

Everything is wont to run to its kindred; and the soul that has a share of the Spirit, on hearing a phrase that has spiritual power hidden within, ardently draws out its content for herself.

Not every man is wakened to wonder by what is said spiritually and has great power concealed in it. A word concerning virtue has need of a heart unbusied with the earth and its converse; for when a man’s mind wearies itself with care about transitory things, the concerns of virtue do not awaken his thought to a longing and a quest to gain them.

+St. Isaac the Syrian

Psalms 107:35-37
He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings. 36. And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation; 37. And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits of increase.

But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

James 1:21-22
Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

True faith is so deep, that it takes lifetime to learn, and no matter who you are, how long you are in Church, there is always something God enlightens us with.
It also concerns those who say things about Orthodox faith without even little studying it.
St John of Kronstadt teaches: “When reading certain truths, do not say: «This is not new; I know this; I said this myself also.» All this is diabolical pride. Such a frame of mind responds with the following philosophy: «I know everything, good and evil.» It almost signifies: « I am omniscient.» And many people do not read sermons and religious books because they think that they know all that is written there–that all that is written there is a repetition of what has been known to them long ago; while worldly books, in which, indeed, there is always the one same empty worldly vanity, they read willingly, and sometimes several times over. O, impure flies that feed upon carrion!”
