"Then by abiding in God in mind and heart, endeavor to fulfill in body the duties and affairs which your station in life imposes upon you." Theophan the Recluse
Words of Elder Sophrony
"Everything you do, all your work, can contribute towards your salvation. It depends on you, on the way you do it. History is replete with monks who became great saints while working in the kitchen or washing sheets. The way of salvation consists in working without passion, in prayer…. May God give you the strength to keep your spirit, your mind, and your heart in the spirit of Christ. Then everything that happens to you can very quickly be radically transformed. What was tiresome and discouraging will disappear, transfigured by your desire to be there where Christ your God is."
This has been SO much fun, seeing all the prom photos and following the excitement. The "bling", the flowers, the tiara... and oh my goodness.. that dress! So beautiful. :-)
I never got to go to a prom, so I've totally enjoyed this. I'm so happy for you and her. I'm just grinning from ear to ear.
I am an Orthodox Christian in a East-West family. I am the Mama of Junior and Princess, and the wife to Hubby for almost 30 years!
I usually don't get it right, but I keep trying! Fall...get back up...fall...get back up...fall...get back up... You get the idea, right?
