Words from the Wise
I received this email from Fr. Demetrios Carellas' email list this morning and thought I would share it:
"I often marvel at the works of man --- the radio, for example. You turn it on, and you hear a voice from America --- from the other side of the world. And I think that so it is in the spiritual realm also: we pray ... to God [here] ... and He hears us in Heaven. This is a great thing, so long as we do not become proud in what we do. We see a beautiful garment. Who gets the praise, the needle or the seamstress? The seamstress, of course. We too are a needle in the hands of God. All things are made by God through us. For this reason, we should not be proud."
~Blessed Ieronymos of Aegina +1966
