ONLY ONE THING IS NEEDED Quotes

“He who fulfills the commandments will be blessed. One of the aims of the Orthodox ascetic struggle is healing or transformation of the passions in the heart, and returning of the divine peace in it―the only precondition for building peace among people. The more apostasy from God, the more depression; the lesser the grace of God in our lives, the more depression. And this problem cannot be solved with pills, but above all, with repentant prayer; it cannot be solved in a pharmacy, but with a struggle in the Church. And never―by escape from reality.”
― Metropolitan Nahum of Strumica, ONLY ONE THING IS NEEDED
