“We are accustomed to the works of God, and therefore value them but little; we do not, for instance, value even man as we ought to—that greatest work and miracle of God’s omnipotence and grace. Look upon every man, whether he is one of your household, or a stranger to you, as upon something perpetually new in God’s world, as upon the greatest miracle of God’s omnipotence and grace, and do not let the fact of your being accustomed to him serve as a reason for you to neglect him.”

(St John of Kronstadt,  ‘My Life in Christ’)
