Orthodox Quote for March 14
“What is more beautiful than prayer! Whoever prays is enlightened and comes to know the will of God. And how does he know it? When he prays well, of course. And when does he pray well? When he sends his prayers to God with all the right ingredients. And what are the ingredients that make prayer savory? Humility, tears, self-reproach, simplicity, and especially obedience with love.”
(Elder Ephraim of Arizona in ‘Counsels from the Holy Mountain’)
