“One word of a humble and (spiritually) experienced man that is painfully born from the depths of his heart has greater worth than a bunch of clever sayings of an external man that come out quickly from his educated mouth. His words don’t speak truth to the souls of men, for they are fleshly words and not the flames of the fire of Pentecost.”
“If you want to grab God’s attention so He’ll hear you during prayer, turn the dial to humility, for God always works in this frequency, then humbly ask for His mercy.”
Elder Paisios
