Failure to do the good that is within your power is hard to forgive. But mercy and prayer reclaim the negligent.

Because God's justice is inexorable, it is hard to obtain forgiveness for sins committed with complete deliberation.

A man who is enticed by sinful thoughts is blinded by them, and he sees the action of sin in himself, but he can not see the cause of this action.

Whatever we do or say without prayer always ends up either sinful or harmful and convicts us through the deeds in some mysterious way.

Whoever has a spiritual gift and compassionate toward one who does not have it guards his gift through his compassion. But whoever is proud of his gift loses it through self-opinion.

Conquer temptations by the patience and prayer. If you oppose them without these, you will fall all the more severely.

The sign of sincere love is to forgive wrongs done to us. It was with such love that the Lord loved the world.
