Der Hayr's Weekly Message

He who ascribes any goodness to himself withstands the grace of God and hinders it from living within him, for the grace of the Holy Spirit always seeks a meek and humble heart.
If you could bring yourself to nothing in true meekness and wholly banish from your heart all created love for material things, then says our Lord, I shall come to you with great abundance of My Grace.
( Thomas Kempis)

Let simplicity accompany you everywhere. Be especially simple in your faith, hope, and love, for God is not a complex Being, and our souls is also simple. The flesh hinders the simplicity of our soul when we gratify it, let meekness be its crown.
( Fr. John of Kronstadt)

Prayer:- Heavenly Father, I pray that I not be blinded by pride when doing a good deed. Keep me humble Lord, and help me to continue in my service to You with a spirit of meekness and never ending joy always proclaiming:

Christ is Risen from the dead: Blessed is the Resurrection of Christ- Krisdos Haryav ee Merelotz Orhnyal e Haroutyunun Krisdosee. Let us all proclaim: Jesus Christ is Lord!!!!!!
