Orthodox Quote for January 9
“The elder has said that when one is saying the Prayer, he feels Divine Grace, tears come any general godly zeal awakens. The beginning stages are indeed the same but if the results are not as described this does not mean that some mistake or failure has occurred. Our part is to persevere; Grace will act in each person according to his character and intent.”
(Elder Joseph of Vatopaidi on his Elder’s guidance)
