"Cry out, O sinner, with all your might; for your Lord is merciful and loves those who repent. As soon as you return, your Father will come out to meet you. He will slaughter the fatted calf , clothe you in a fine robe, and rejoice in you." --St. Ephraim the Syrian
"Be ever more obedient to God and He will save you." --St. Pachomius
"So in every test, let us say, 'Thank you, my God, because this was needed for my salvation." --St. Paisios
"Every Christian should find for himself the imperative and inventive to become holy. If you live without struggle and without hope of becoming holy, then you are Christians only in name and not in essence." --St. Philaret of Moscow
