To live as Christians means to be similar and in the likeness of Christ. As the Apostle Paul says, to have the same movements of the heart and the same mind with the Son of God.
As we have the knowledge of this purpose, the mind will not be lost in trifles.
The passionate desires, the envy, the clashes, the small problems of everyday life will pass utterly unremarkable.
Elder Sophrony of Essex
