Word from the Desert

Elder Paisios of the Holy Mountain said: A person should experience his sinfulness and have trust and hope in the mercy of God, because that way he'll be saved. That way the mind is recollected and experiences prayer as a need. That way he begins to say: Lord Jesus Christ, come...", and the heart gains rest.
