May The Lord help us to repent!
This sermon is at the heart of what I need to digest at this stage of my life. God puts us into bad circumstances because of our sins. Let’s repent.
May The Lord help us to repent!
Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

May the most just, most high, and most amiable will of God be done, praised and eternally exalted in all things. Amen. The will of God is holy and perfect. (My bible copy has 100 verses for Daniel Chapter 3, but many translations have cut the second part of that prayer out altogether.)

We waited for the sermons Father. Na Mnogaja Ljeta ☦🙏🕊

I can only speak for Americans because that’s where I live. We allowed them to take God out of schools/the 10 commandments from the courtrooms/Alphabet cult to infiltrate the church/pastors/teachers/preachers to speak sermons that tickle the ears/refusal to preach on sin.
America has no idea how much mourning is coming.
Perhaps all this must come to pass because that’s when people turn to Jesus when things are bad.
Stay faithful til the end.
May God keep us forever.
You are the best Demetrius🌹
Please pray for our Metropolitan. That is better.
Your Eminence, I’ve been subscribed to your channel for quite some time now. And watch your videos regularly.
I’m aware your sermons are for the orthodox. But I want you to know that Catholics like myself listen, and enjoy, your videos. Thank you.
Thank you very much for your kind words. May God help you to find salvation!
Well said 💜☦️💜
Thank you. God bless you.
Beautifully said. ❤
God bless you.

God bless you.

God bless you.
I always wondered since my early childhood, why i sense that I do not belong here. Its because I don't , but i have a lot to do.
We belong to Jesus Christ.

Amen
We always GET the rulers that we DESERVE because of our sins. I practice the devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus twice daily with prayers in front of His Holy Face and then I clean His Face with a clean, white cotton handkerchief. If anyone is interested in doing this for reparations of atheism, sacrilege of God's Holy Days and especially taking God's name in vane - you are most welcome. Best book to start:
"The Golden Arrow - The Revelations of Sr. Mary of St. Peter."
God Bless!!!
Turn not Thy Countenance away from us O Lord!
Master, bless! Why do I waver so much? My fear and pride are insidious, I self justify and repent and just continue to self justify? My passions are so deeply rooted and crafty that I seem to think I'm somehow justified by all of the bad fruit I've bore. It's like falling into a sleep, I just end up riding out a passion, and end up not fasting, praying, giving... Anything good. Just eating and ruminating and self pity abounds. I'm sick, Geronda, and more than ever I am in need of spiritual healing. Please forgive me, I've offended and transgressed many and so many times. I've lied, cheated, lusted, drank and ranted so many times I've lost count. This horrible feeling of regret, knowing I could have done better looms over me like a dark cloud ready to strike lightning. How do I fend off my fears, doubts, impulses and especially pride? It feels like I've not even begun my repentant life, and know that God is good and trust in Him, and am grateful for all the bad and good in my life... Why am I so ungrateful? I don't ever want to take life for granted again. I'm a complete mockery. God forgive me!
I've affected so many lives in such a profoundly negative way. I'm at fault, I've transgressed God's law countless times. I'm a bad tree, God please have mercy and guide me to repentance, true repentance. I'm tired not because of trying to do the right thing, but the lack of doing the right thing. God save my wretched soul from eternal damnation, though I am truly worthy to be damned, please be merciful to me, the worst hypocritical sinner. Please be safe everyone, please Lord Jesus Christ save us!
I pray to be forgiven. I pray that love and peace may abound. I pray, Lord Jesus Christ, that we are all safe from the evil one! Please protect my soul from temptations from the left and the right, so things may somehow be easier for others, despite all of the chaos I've unwittingly and wittingly caused.
Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us all.
Thank you for your sermon, Geronda, your words are like drops of water on my tongue while the flames around me seek to burn me utterly away. Truly...
In Christ,
Alexandros
God bless you. If you need to contact His Eminence you can write directly to gocofamerica@gmail.com

Thank you, Glory to God ☦️
Is the life of a Christian a battle with every action he or she partakes in? I have a heavy heart for I know my wretched soul is fit for the lake of fire and brimstone. I know Christ is truth and the only way and I truly believe that, yet I can not feel that God wants to forgive me. Oh hear my laments for I am tormented by my own existence.
We have hope in Christ Jesus. Go to confession, repent, and correct yourself. The Lord wishes your salvation.
@@OrthodoxTradition where do I start, please help me.
Do you live near an Orthodox Church? Where do you live?
@bartsimpsonnft4387. Have you begun the journey home. Did you answer the Monastery's question?
@@Kaytee-miow yes
My parents are emotional unavaiable, we are disfunctional family, no one cares about our faith orthodoxy, noone goes to liturgy fasting, only self ego, i want to go to church to fast, im alone alone very alone against this people. They are laughing, blame me. They dont have a shame on they behaviour to god or they see themselves not as sinner, they said every time they only are the rights.. please it makes me so cry how aggressive and stone hearted this people are..
Please seek help from a nearby priest.
Don't allow them to have your peace.
As Jesus says to Peter after the Resurrection, "what is that to you, you follow Me".
Set your face toward God and He will be your high wall and give you EVERYTHING you need.

May The Lord help us to repent!
