   "For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived,   
   serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and   
   hating one another.' Therefore we ought to be thus to all, to be gently   
   disposed. For he who was formerly in such a state, and has been delivered   
   from it, ought not to reproach others, but to pray, to be thankful to Him   
   Who has granted both to him and them deliverance from such evils. Let no   
   one boast; for all have sinned. If they, doing well thyself, thou art   
   inclined to revile others, consider thy own former life, and the   
   uncertainty of the future, and restrain thy anger. For if thou hast lived   
   virtuously from thy earliest youth, yet nevertheless thou mayest have many   
   sins; and if thou hast not, as thou thinkest, consider that this is not the   
   effect of thy virtue, but of the grave of God. For if He had not called thy   
   forefathers, thou wouldest have been disobedient."   
      
   St. John Chrysostom.   
      
   "Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong."  1 Corinthians 16:13   
      
   Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
