Beliberda only knows how to repost someone's stuff and it is usually some crap. You have nothing of your own, Beliberda. When you quote from the Bible you sound terribly hypocritical. You do not practice what you preach and that is why you are a liar, Bloody Zhoppadia.
Create something yourself, boring Zhopadia.
Oh , and she loооves putting the angel emoji which has nothing to do with her

2 Cor 7:10 and the book of Job tend to disagree.
"For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation.
There's no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance, results in spiritual death."

Today's Readings

John 21:1-14
St. Paul's First Letter to Timothy 4:9-15
Luke 19:1-10

The Gospel According to John 21:1-14

At that time, Jesus revealed Himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias; and He revealed Himself in this way. Simon Peter, Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together. Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach, yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any fish?" They answered him, "No." He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, for the quantity of fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his clothes, for he was stripped for work, and sprang into the sea. But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off. When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire there with fish lying on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish that you have just caught." So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them; and although there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." Now none of the disciples dared ask Him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish. This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after He was raised from the dead.

St. Paul's First Letter to Timothy 4:9-15

Prokeimenon. Grave Mode.
Psalm 28.11,1
The Lord will give strength to his people.
Verse: Bring to the Lord, O sons of God, bring to the Lord honor and glory.

The reading is from St. Paul's First Letter to Timothy 4:9-15

Timothy, my son, the saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and suffer reproach, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe. Command and teach these things. Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you. Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress.

15th Sunday of Luke
The Gospel According to Luke 19:1-10

At that time, Jesus was passing through Jericho. And there was a man named Zacchaios; he was a chief collector, and rich. And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not, on account of the crowd, because he was small of stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way. And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchaios, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today." So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully. And when they saw it they all murmured, "He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner." And Zacchaios stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold." And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham. For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."

Praying for peace and Justice in Ukraine

Our Father, which art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive them who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For thine is the kingdom
and the power and the glory, for ever.
Amen.

American Woman Becomes Orthodox Christian Nun and Moves to Russia - Mother Cornelia Rees (VIDEO, TRANSCRIPT)
What a wonderful, sweet lady!

I love Mother Cornelia! She is quite friendly and is such a sweet lady. I’ll never forget meeting her during my first visits to Russia, back around 2015 or 2016. The following year, in 2017, I brought my whole family to Russia.

She used to live in the American Midwest, and her name was Caroline. Then she and her friend started investigating various religions. She wasn’t sure what she wanted to be, but she didn’t want to be Presbyterian anymore. After years of searching, she took a trip to Platina, and discovered the Orthodox Church. The rest, as they say, is history!

Путиноиды не ценят того, что у них есть, лезут на чужое, но окажутся в итоге у разбитого корыта. В России и притчи и русские сказки на эту тему написаны умными людьми, но до никчемных и жадных путиноидов никогда не дойдет ПРАВДА.

Чужого не желай. Притча

Явился к Богу человек один
и счастья попросил ему отмерить.
«А ты сумеешь пользоваться им?»
«Не сомневайся, можешь мне поверить!»

И, правда,начал он счастливо жить.
Но всё ж, ему однажды показалось,
что много лучше счастье у других,
и что ему совсем не то досталось.

Уже не в радость стало то, что есть,
и стало не хватать, хоть всего много:
Есть что одеть, и досыта поесть.
Но… зависть перешла ему дорогу.

Он злился, постепенно усыхал,
и чтобы смертной избежать напасти,
пришел обратно к Богу и сказал:
«Ты дал мне очень маленькое счастье».

«Ты ошибаешься, - ответил Бог,-
ты получил огромнейшее счастье.
Но вот воспользоваться им не смог,
И радость жизни превратил в ненастье".

«Дай столько мне, чтоб мог я разглядеть».
«Что ж, только помни – это не бесплатно!»
Пришёл домой, а … дома-то и нет-
исчезло напрочь всё добро и злато.

«О, Господи, ты же не дал, а взял!»
«Да, но лишь то, что ты не оценил.
Теперь для новой жизни час настал.
Что заслужил ты, то и получил".

Есть люди, благодарные всегда,
умеющие видеть много в малом.
Иные ж не довольны никогда-
сколько ни дай, всё скажут мало.

Будь счастлив тем, что в жизни дарит Бог,
И зависть стороною обойдёт.

“Monastery of Saint John the Theologian Patmos “The island of Apocalypse”
