Nothing torments our soul as much as painful worry or anxiety. Cast all your worries and concerns that cause you troubles and sorrows at the feet of God, for He cares for all of us.
Paisios of Mount AthosMore Paisios of Mount Athos quotes
When children see that their parents love each other, respect one another, are attentive to each other, pray together, and so on-all of this leaves a deep impression on their young souls. That is why I say: if parents pass on their piety to their children, it will be the greatest inheritance they could ever leave them.
Paisios of Mount Athos
Unfortunately, we do not realize that when we do our work in a hurry, we become nervous. And when work is done nervously, it is not sanctified. Our goal should not be to do many things and be in constant anxiety. This is a demonic condition. What is done with calmness and prayer is blessed, and it also blesses the people who use it.
