On enduring sorrows


 
 

If a person endures sorrows with submission to the will of God, while confessing his sins,

 
through this he will be delivered from the threat of eternal torments.
 

Therefore, it is better to endure troubles here, no matter how difficult they may be, casting your sorrow upon the Lord and praying to Him with humility, that He deliver us from faintheartedness and despair, which are worse than any other sins.
