“Has someone struck me unjustly? ‘Glory be to you, O Lord! Perhaps I may be able to pay off a sin; I, too, had once struck someone.’ Have I been insulted unjustly? ‘Glory be to Thee, O Lord! I accept it out of love for You; for You, too, were struck and slandered for me.’”
(Elder St Paisios, ‘Spiritual Struggle’)
