“It is better to be glorified than ashamed and better to be blessed than cursed, just as life is better than death and health is better than disease and light is better than darkness. May God glorify you all with his glory and bless you with his blessing, all of you who have gathered today for glory and prayer in this wonderful sanctuary of yours and the sanctuary of your fathers.”
(St. Nikolai Velimirovich, recently discovered homily)
