Porphyrios of Kafsokalyvia quotes - page 2

At the moment of temptation, the easiest thing to do is to turn to God, and to turn to Him steadfastly and expectantly, and you will be filled with strength at once. (Porphyrios of Kafsokalyvia)
What is the spiritual battle? Well, the soul is a garden divided into two parts. On one half are planted thorny bushes, and on the other half flowers. We also have a water pump with two taps and two channels. The one guides the water to the thorns and the other to the flowers. I always have the choice to open one or the other tap. I leave the thorns without water and they dry up, I water the flowers and they blossom. View quote

God loves us very much; He has us in mind in each and every moment and He protects us, we should know this and not be afraid of anything. View quote
Porphyrios of Kafsokalyvia
Strive not to cast out the evils that you have within yourself, but rather open the door so that the light, which is Christ, may enter, and thus everything dark within you will disappear. View quote
