St Seraphim of Sarov
Concerning the care of our soul within our body, which is like a lit candle.
The candle must burn out, and we must die.
But as our soul is Immortal, so should our cares be directed more toward our
Immortal soul than our temporary body:
"...For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose
his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
(Matthew 16:26)
As we know, there is nothing in the world that can serve as ransom for our
priceless Immortal soul!!
Consequently, if our soul alone is worth more than all the riches and
treasures of this temporary world, then definitely the Kingdom of Heaven
is incomparably even more precious.
We consider our Immortal soul as being Most Precious for the reason stated
by St Makarios the Great, who believed and taught us that God did not
desire to bond and unite His Spiritual Essence with any visible creation
except mankind, whom He Loves more than any of His other creations.
St Peter of Damaskos
Consider the Reverence shown by St Paul. When he wished to speak about
God, he did not begin until he had offered to Him the Prayer and
Thanksgiving that befits Him, thus showing that it was from God that he
had his Knowledge and Strength.
And this is the right order, for Counsel comes after Prayer.
Likewise St Luke did not leave the Acts of the Apostles incomplete because
of negligence or some worldly constraint, but because he departed this
life to be with God.
We, however, leave our Tasks unfinished because of our negligence or
debility, for we do not carry out the Work of God diligently and do not
regard it as our main Task.
On the contrary, we disdain it as a kind of incidental chore.
Because of this we fail to Prosper, or indeed often regress, like those others
who turned back and no longer followed our Lord Jesus. (cf. John
6:66).
And yet, says St John Chrysostom, what our Lord Jesus said was nothing
harsh, as they thought, for He was speaking to them about Doctrine.
Noneth less, where a resolute disposition and desire are lacking, even easy
things appear difficult - although the reverse is true as well.
