"The heart can change several times in one moment - to good or evil,
to faith or unbelief, to simplicity or cunning, to love or hatred, to
benevolence or envy, to generosity or avarice, to chastity or
fornication. O, what inconstancy! O, how many dangers! |O, how sober
and watchful we must be!"
St. John of Kronstadt.

"Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him,
and he in God." 1 John 4:15

The Bible reading for the 25th of Misra, August 31st, is:
32 Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to
give you the kingdom. 33 Sell what you have and give alms; provide
yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens
that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys. 34
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 35 Let your
waist be girded and your lamps burning; 36 and you yourselves be like
men who wait for their master, when he will return from the wedding,
that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately. 37
Blessed are those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find
watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have
them sit down to eat, and will come and serve them. 38 And if he
should come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find
them so, blessed are those servants. 39 But know this, that if the
master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would
have watched and not allowed his h
ouse to be broken into. 40 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of
Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. 41 Then Peter said to Him,
Lord, do You speak this parable only to us, or to all people? 42 And
the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his
master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion
of food in due season? 43 Blessed is that servant whom his master will
find so doing when he comes. 44 Truly, I say to you that he will make
him ruler over all that he has. (Luke 12:32-44)
