The kingdom of heaven approached; Patients heal, levech cleans, resurrect the dead, weather demons; Given the gift, let's give you ... I send you like sheep among the wolves: So be wise as Zmia, and simple, like pigeons "(Matt. 10,7-8.16). "Prick to me all we are worried and burdened, and I will calm you; Take the Google on myself and learn from me, for I have a meek and humble heart, and find peace of your souls; For Google is good, and the burden of mine is easy "(MF.11.28-30). The idea that for reconciliation with God and the acquisition of salvation is only necessary to believe in Jesus Christ and recognize him with his personal Savior and the Lord seems primitive. People tend to deserve God's arrangement by their affairs, forgetting that Jesus taught children's simplicity and gullibility, without which he could not be considered his follower (MF.18.3). Salvation by grace, and not on business, salvation given by the gift, do not like people who are proud to have committed. That is why the Apostle Paul said that among Christians "not many wise on flesh, not much strong, not many noble" (1 Cor. 1.26). People who are proud of their wisdom are not inclined to become Christians. They cannot accept so much to believe that the meaning of life can be so simple. "Whoever professes that Jesus is the Son of God, God is in that, and he is in God" (1in.4.15). I believed these words and built my life according to the Gospel. He took his cross and followed Christ. My cross began with early childhood, from the age of 6, when my father was arrested and imprisoned for 7 years. For what? For the fact that he was a believer man. My father from the Krolevetsky bins of Sumy province. He married a girl from the Chernihiv province of the city of Gorod, her parents were simple innocent. Father, a deeply believer man, from his childhood loved God, his mother put his love for the church. He graduated brilliantly church-parish school. And at the age of 16 worked as a writer in the city council ... ... and only after the management of the KGB changed, I was hand-made to the priests ... I served Diakom in the Demeevsky temple and there was a lot around different people, even among the priests. My hot faith and prayer made a miracle with me: Metropolitan sent me to the Pokrovsky Monastery, at the beginning for a month - for the time of vacation Diacon. But the sisters of the monastery cured me from the gastric disease, restored my health, and I already been in it for thirty-four years. And I hope to serve in it to the last sigh. Where I just visited which monasteries did not attend and even in the border, but such a wonderful, as our Pokrovsky - did not meet anywhere. Already in 1974, when one of the priests in the Pokrovsky monastery died, Igumena asked Metropolitan: - Vladyko, give us a priest! - We have no priest, but why don't your diacon do not ordict? "And we are glad, other and did not want," the prisst person answered. - Well, deacon, and come tomorrow with the past ... I didn't sleep the whole night, I brought the prayer to God, worried and asked myself how I would bother me, if the sinner himself? Did I cope with this allotter service, is it worthy? There were a lot more and formal difficulties, until the authorized on affairs of religion was changed. After all, I was an uncomfortable person, never walked on any compromises with conscience and commandments of Christ, especially if these questions of morality were concerned. And now twenty-six years I serve a priest and thank God for all the great blessings, which he sent me all his life. I love to work in the glory of God, it is gratifying to communicate with people for me. Everyone needs prayer. For a great miracle to resurrect the spiritual dead man, for hearing, having loved the Lord, he will rise to the eternal life.
