“The salvation of the soul is the most important thing. But it is the Savior Who saves souls, not us. We merely testify to our faith, our devotion to Him, and He, in proportion to our cleaving to Him, provides us with everything we need for salvation. Don’t think of earning anything through hard work; earn it through faith, contrition, and devotion to God. Do more good, help those in need.”
Saint Theophan the Recluse
