SO GOOD QUOTES

Author: SO GOOD QUOTES

  • Each person has his own inner world. As far as how each person lives, that is a matter of conscience. Sometimes the conscience becomes calloused, and one does not realize it. He is in a deep sleep, saying, I do everything well and pleasing to God; my conscience does not convict me. But when a person is spiritual and prays unceasingly, entreating God, God will not leave the darkness of his soul without illumination, but will open the eyes of his soul.

    —Gerondissa Makrina (Vassopoulou)

  • Do not do anything that your conscience prohibits, and do not omit anything that it says to do, whether great or small.

    —St. Theophan the Recluse

  • “It is You who will find solution for my problem, for it is You alone who has solutions. Whenever I seek others, my problems get more complexed and increase.”

    —H.H. Pope Shenouda III, Life of Hope

  • If you do not know what you ought to do, stand still until you do. And when the time comes for action, circumstances, like glow-worms, will sparkle along your path; and you will become so sure that you are right, when God’s three witnesses concur, that you could not be surer though an angel beckoned on you.

    —F.B. Meyers, The Gift of Suffering

  • We have no need or right to run hither and thither to ask our friends what we ought to do…Every one says we must do something; and indeed things seem to have reached so desperate a pitch that we must…It is not easy at such times to stand still…but we must.

    —F.B. Meyers, The Gift of Suffering
