Last year with no place left to turn I prayed to God in repentance then begged for help with all my heart, "I was until then a lifelong Atheist." I then had a dream of Jesus coming before God and he spoke of the Tabernacle in perfect context, "A word I didn't know existed because I've never read the bible", and the love I felt from Jesus was unlike anything I've ever felt before - A lifetime of joy every second - It brought me to sobbing and it changed my life forever. I've had other miracles since, a few being a light turning on in answer to deeply needful prayer 6 times, seeing a orb of light hours before a major surgery, seeing an Angel in a dream the night my mother prayed for me to see one, "Without telling me", and so much more. Know that God and Jesus ARE real and that they love us deeply. Let go of your hatred and Imagine yourself holding the people who've hurt you. Tell them you love and forgive them and do your best to follow, "I've failed many times", the 10 commandments.
When you said, "The demons will try to convince us that God is harsh and judgmental." it really caught my attention. I was taught that almost my whole life. It's such an easy thing to believe as well when the whole world itself is harsh and judgmental. It's nice to be reminded that mercy is given out so readily as long as you have faith and return to the truth. Thank you for your wisdom in such a distracting and sinful year.

It took me years to have enough courage to return to God through confession. I kept telling myself that I didn’t need to go because God knew I was sorry. Truth be told, I was to ashamed of my sins and terrified I would be told that I couldn’t be forgiven. Waiting on line, the thoughts of fear and doubt kept coming but I prayed for God to give me courage. As I spoke to my priest, my tears streamed down as I confessed my sins. He gently reminded me that when a person is truly sorry, they are forgiven and that heaven rejoices when a sinner returns. I do remember saying several times that, “I just wanted to come home.” Thinking about the unnecessary years of separation from God because I was too afraid and ashamed to seek His mercy, this message rang very true for me.
Glad you discovered and embraced Mercy from our loving God 🛐☦️🕊️ Every day and hour, and with every thought and breath, I'm thankful for God's mercies in Christ Jesus 🛐🔥

Beautiful. We are going to sin no matter how hard we try not to do so, but God's mercy is limitless and if we merely return to Him daily in repentance, with the heart of a child, with faith in the Savior Christ's atonement for our sins not a one of us can be plucked from His hands. Peace to all of my brothers and sisters.
Father Spyridron, You are my inspiration. I am Roman Catholic, but really love your sermons. May God , allow you to keep giving these great inspirational sermons. May God Bless you always.
It is always a blessing to listen to someone who spends a lot of time with God. I'm a protestant who has recently taken an interest in Roman Catholicism and Orthodox UA-cam channels. I'm not familiar with the various differences but recognise the love of God when I'm exposed to it. I've developed a curiously about the sacraments and honouring Mary and hope to find out more. Blessings from South Africa
one difference is concept of original sin. Catholics believe we have an inherent sinful nature which is why we are in a fallen state. Orthodox believe it is a broken relationship with God and nothing intrinsic to our nature. Both represent our situation regardless. Another is Catholics believe Mary was immaculately conceived, necessary due to original sin. "Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, and save us from the fires of Hell. And lead all souls to salvation, especially those in most need of your Mercy. Amen." "Holy Mary, Blessed Mary, Mother of God Mary, Queen of Heaven Mary, Purest Virgin Mary, Please pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen"
@easton thayn Thank you, I just finished watching the video. It was very insightful but also sad to see the many different views that divide Christians.
Every day I get up and know that Jesus Christ our Lord is with me His Spirit is dwelling in my heart. I walk with him and He leads me and guides me. My body is a Holy temple and when I wonder off the mark I immediately seek His mercy. Praise be to God for His plan of salvation amen.
American Catholic here, thank you for this homily Father! I’m praying for peace in Ukraine, a miracle of humility and peace in Putin’s heart, the turning of America and the West away from moral decay and back to Christ, and the reunion of Catholic and Orthodox brothers. Lord Jesus, have mercy on us, forgive us of our sins, save us from the fires of hell and lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy. Amen. ✞☧☦︎
Nothing to do with Putins heart. US funded coup in 2014 in Ukraine and they have been killing separatists in Donbass for 8 years with 15000 dead and 200 children murdered. Should Russia not help the helpless?
@@tehdreamer Russia has god on their side. They retain the true church and the truth. The west and Europe and the Greeks betray everything orthodoxy is. But Russia leads the way of the true church. As a Greek I am ashamed of our orthodox leaders, because they have chosen the path of evil to try take over Ukrainian churches from Patriarch kiril. They let their ppl down telling them to be back or they can’t take communion, to show their mark to enter the church. The Catholics must return back to us. The world must return to orthodoxy and Russia is the last true orthodox country left not overtaken by evil of the west. I hope Russia brings orthodoxy and light to the world and the Greeks return to the path of truth
Why are we praying for peace when Jesus bring a sword? It's a waste of time. Im tired of people thinking this world as it is will ever be peaceful. We're better off praying that God can save people and bring to the world his glory through us and through others.
@@FollowTheTrend798 By this logic, why should we desire the salvation of all souls while knowing that most will not choose it? Because that's the charitable thing to desire. Not to delude ourselves into thinking all will be saved, but still desiring the best for them.
Beautiful beautiful words. Not even 1 min in. I experienced a great conversion. But it’s the spiritual battle that you’ve brought me to and teach me in. Thank you Father! You don’t know me but you’re my spiritual director. God bless you.

I’m confused now why Orthodox brothers and sisters are killing each other. But then again, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Even the righteousness of these believers doesn’t stop a massacre like in Ukraine. Now I know why many Christians stand for salvation by faith alone in Christ alone. Better to put your faith in no man, but the resurrected Christ.
Dear Father Spyridon I am an atheist, and I have been watching your videos for some good time now. I was raised in a Christian household, but then fell away at age 11. I tried to bring myself back to faith, but to no avail. You clearly have knowledge that I don't, and I wish to know from the best on how to return back. Sincerely, Laudonniere.
Thank you, Father Spyridon, for this beautiful talk. It took some time to notice this bit in the story of the Prodigal Son: when the son was returning and still a long way off, the Father saw him and ran towards him and embraced him. That has, many times, been a great comfort to me that God is waiting, just waiting, for us to return to him. He is watching always and sees us from a great distance and comes to meet us. What a great God we serve.
Why only Ukraine? What about your brothers in Somalia, Yemen and Sudan who are being bombed into oblivion by the Wild West along with the entire middle east. Don't fall for their propaganda and lies. We're not being told the truth about Ukraine. The US have been staging coups around the world ousting democratically elected leaders and installing globalist puppets. They couldn't care less for the people of Ukraine. They are there like the Russians for resources.
I am reading your book now (Small steps into the kingdom), thank you to one of the comments in another video of yours that praised it. I feel a flame in my heart while reading. I am baptized a protestant, I am living in a part of the world (north Norway) without an orthodox church. I want to be part of the one true apostolic church. Thank you father. Lord Jesus Christ son of God Have mercy on me the sinner.
Thank you, Father! I converted from protestantism many years ago. Recently I was reminded of what used to be the emphasis on salvation, the conversion, "giving one's heart to God". The protestant dogma has this as a single event in one's life. But recently I came to understand that repentance after every sin is giving one's heart back to God, having already given oneself over to sin. It was an interesting realisation.
In prodestant churches they repent every week. I've attended many churches and all repent as part of the service and the eucharist. Please don't spread lies.
Yes, I too was protestant and joined the orthodox church the most wonderful thing in my life was the gradual learning to repent and be set free to be whole again a blessing on your day as we wait for his return for us
@@sharonwalters6135 Why didn't you repent as a prodestant. Its a requirement. In fact you have to repent every week 🙄 Live perfect as your father in heaven is perfect. It starts with repentance. If it took "converting" to make you repent, I'm glad you did. But I'm still shocked you didn't bother before.
Everyday l choose to chip away at sinning less it is a daily struggle but without Gods words which is spirit where is my will as it becomes devided l see him more and great moments of his love through such miraculous wealth in his power l am healed and reborn to keep fighting for Gods will and not mine.
I enjoyed hearing this talk Fr , thank you very much.🙏 "The humble are shielded from pride", this line really touched my heart. I love humble people, I personally feel that I need to work on that area. Yes God's glory is seen all around us on a daily basis. Watching the squirrels and birds eat and move around, what a wonderful God we serve ❤️. and whenever I start to think about His love, I feel so filled 🙏 God bless
Thanks for being here Father. You have a way with words and speak with such authority from both God's word and Holy tradition. I am trying to join in the Church that I attend often, desiring the sacraments. You've played a part in this, thank you so much. Kyrie Eleison
I feel like a man overcome by sin and its all my own doing, I say ill read the bible and dont, go to church but dont and hardly pray and all I think about is god. I must find a way to zap myself out of this slum and get back to church. I am thankful I found your channel again, maybe this is the start of the answers to my prayers.
Yes, time is running out for us to live out God's purpose for our earthly lives. As a parent, each day I delay shortens my children's time to live out God's purpose for their lives. That's a pretty big consequence if you take time to think about it...and we will be judged for that by God. What we do with our own lives is not done in isolation; think of the butterfly effect. “Acquire the Spirit of Peace and a thousand souls around you will be saved.” - St. Seraphim of Sarov
I am Orthodox, Russian Orthodox living in America. I need prayers father, for I know I’m a sinner. God has told me I can’t be perfect in the flesh-but will be closer to him one day in the spiritual realm. Pray for my sins father as I pray!!! God bless you! You’re a true spiritual sage! 🙏🏻 ☀️ 🕊
Please pray for me Father. When I first heard of the parable of the Sheep and Goats, it answered so many things for me. It spoke to me, explained why I was criticized for approaching whoever appeared to need help and what the root of my being was. I will still help those when needed but I am tired, so very tired, of this world where no-one sees anymore. Pray for me,please.
Isaiah 40: 28-31 gives me hope. 28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Be gentle on yourself, maybe you are the little light in the distance that will guide some of those in the dark a safe passage out. he is beside you at all times, so rest in his arms for awhile. God bless and take care.

Thank you father Spiridon for reminding us that time is running out, your words are a bell that rings and wakes us up from our slumber. God bless you.💚 Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us and save us!🙏☦
Thank you Fr Spyridon for the message. I used to be taught by my grandparents that eating with my left hand was evil, or writing with it, and that I should literally be scared of God. I see now that I'm much older that God is not that way. He is kind and loving, not harsh and judgmental. I love being in His presence now & I could ask for nothing better. :)
Ezekiel 18:20-32 ... “But if a wicked person turns away from all his sins that he has committed and keeps all my statutes and does what is just and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. Ezekiel 18:21 “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, declares the Lord God. Repent and turn from all your transgressions, lest iniquity be your ruin. Cast away from you all the transgressions that you have committed, and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! Why will you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Lord God; so turn, and live.” Ezekiel 18:30-32 ... And he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, you know.” Ezekiel 37:3 ESV
Please pray for me. There have been many roadblocks to my conversion, some I have created myself, now that I'm ready, external forces are preventing me. I also feel I lack sincerity
same thing happened to me.... hold on to what is true and don't judge others, indeed rejoice in the difficulties. The difficulties show the enemy does not want this to happen.
How much time are you spending on social media or the internet in general? There are many demons that will drag you into distraction & despair if you let them. Spend more time- hours if you have them- to pray & read scripture & other spiritual works. Pray for St. Jude's intercession in your life (Saint of impossible causes). He has never failed me. Take this challenge- get off the internet for a whole day. Notice how you won't feel like a zombie anymore, depression will disappear. Good luck.

There are many of these that I know of - one you can use from older (read: longer) pre-Communion prayers (God give me the strength to do these through and with focused mind!), one that is supposed to be used halfway between your scheduled Confessions during fasting periods or however often your Spritual Father recommends them outside emergencies, one for your Holy Angel, one from concluding prayers from the Russian style of personal Compline, and this, to the Holy Spirit: "O Lord, Heavenly King, Comforter, Spirit of Truth, show compassion and have mercy on me Thy sinful servant, and loose me from mine unworthiness, and forgive all wherein I have sinned against Thee today as a man, and not only as a man, but even worse than a beast, my sins voluntary and involuntary, known and unknown, whether from youth, and from evil suggestion, or whether from brazenness and despondency. If I have sworn by Thy name, or blasphemed it in my thought; or grieved anyone, or have become angry about anything; or have lied, or slept needlessly, or if a beggar hath come to me and I disdained him; or if I have grieved my brother, or have quarreled, or have condemned anyone; or if I have been boastful, or prideful, or angry; if, as I stood at prayer, my mind hath been distracted by the wiles of this world, or by thoughts of depravity; if I have over-eaten, or have drunk excessively, or laughed frivolously; if I have thought evil, or seen the beauty of another and been wounded thereby in my heart; if I have said improper things, or derided my brother’s sin when mine own sins are countless; if I have been neglectful of prayer, or have done some other wrong that I do not remember, for all of this and more than this have I done: have mercy, O Master my Creator, on me Thy downcast and unworthy servant, and loose me, and remit, and forgive me, for Thou art good and the Lover of mankind, so that, lustful, sinful, and wretched as I am, I may lie down and sleep and rest in peace. And I shall worship, and hymn, and glorify Thy most honourable name, together with the Father and His Only-begotten Son, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen."
Eternal kingdom's treasures will be inherited equally for all believers who have lived on earth a righteous life. This is just part of what we will earn for being loyal soldiers of Christ. Imagine how joyous life would that be living in glory forever.
Yes Jesus is speeding up time in order to cut the time short as in when he will come and save us. For unless he cuts the time short or speeds up time to its conclusion concerning our salvation we will be destroyed. For Jesus said unless I do so, no one will be left alive.
In my humble opinion, this was the finest video you have made... It hit me in the heart... My question: How do I break a sinful habit I have indulged in for years...???
One day at a time and every moment, be prayerful and realize when temptation comes. May you gather strength in your battle. Perhaps all have some type of addiction we must fight! Love to you!
i have big problems with my laziness and my lust for carnal pleasure, its very hard to overcome it, because i'm constantly stimulated by internet...i repent everytime i pray my night prayer but i'm simply not able to overcome my desire, its my burden...Lord Jesus Christ, please have mercy on us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Not yet, Padre. God bless!! - "Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God." II Thessalonians 2:1-4 NKJV
I'm a bit worried as recently I've been constantly sinning in my dreams. I repent for them, but it is rather unsettling. Seems like more I try give up my sins and vices in the "real" world, the more vivid, strange and sinful my dreams get. Including things I have never and would not do in real life. I also never seem to remember God in my dreams, like I'm a different person. One of the dreams included a graffiti on a wall that mentioned Jesus though. It said "If Jesus comes, come".
Isn't remembering dreams bad tho? Saint Macarius, the Great has a prayer that mentions protection from dreams and obscure thoughts. I think it's really bad to think about them, they're fueled by the passions just like evil thoughts, If we manage to control our passions the dreams will also reduce
It's always best to forget dreams as soon as you wake. I consider it like being forced to watch a disgusting movie when you are a child. Obviously, committing a sin in your dreams is not a real sin but the devil's delusion.

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
Thank you for your words Father.
call no man farther, your farther is in Heaven.
As St Paisios said, we must understand what a precious commodity time is, and what a sin it is to waste it.
Father Spyridron, You are my inspiration. I am Roman Catholic, but really love your sermons. May God , allow you to keep giving these great inspirational sermons. May God Bless you always.
It is always a blessing to listen to someone who spends a lot of time with God. I'm a protestant who has recently taken an interest in Roman Catholicism and Orthodox UA-cam channels. I'm not familiar with the various differences but recognise the love of God when I'm exposed to it. I've developed a curiously about the sacraments and honouring Mary and hope to find out more. Blessings from South Africa
Please find an orthodox church and talk to a priest if you can you wont regret it ☦
@@taytay9076 I plan on doing that, thank you.
one difference is concept of original sin.
Catholics believe we have an inherent sinful nature which is why we are in a fallen state.
Orthodox believe it is a broken relationship with God and nothing intrinsic to our nature.
Both represent our situation regardless.
Another is Catholics believe Mary was immaculately conceived, necessary due to original sin.
"Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, and save us from the fires of Hell.
And lead all souls to salvation, especially those in most need of your Mercy. Amen."
"Holy Mary,
Blessed Mary,
Mother of God Mary,
Queen of Heaven Mary,
Purest Virgin Mary,
Please pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen"
@easton thayn Thank you, I just finished watching the video. It was very insightful but also sad to see the many different views that divide Christians.
Hello from Cape Town. Also a Protestant but loving orthodox teachings 🙌
It is later than we think. We need to pray for God’s mercy. Thank you Father Spyridon.
Lord Jesus, Son of God, please have mercy on me a prideful sinner.
Every day I get up and know that Jesus Christ our Lord is with me His Spirit is dwelling in my heart. I walk with him and He leads me and guides me. My body is a Holy temple and when I wonder off the mark I immediately seek His mercy. Praise be to God for His plan of salvation amen.
American Catholic here, thank you for this homily Father!
I’m praying for peace in Ukraine, a miracle of humility and peace in Putin’s heart, the turning of America and the West away from moral decay and back to Christ, and the reunion of Catholic and Orthodox brothers. Lord Jesus, have mercy on us, forgive us of our sins, save us from the fires of hell and lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy. Amen. ✞☧☦︎
Nothing to do with Putins heart. US funded coup in 2014 in Ukraine and they have been killing separatists in Donbass for 8 years with 15000 dead and 200 children murdered. Should Russia not help the helpless?
@@tehdreamer Russia has god on their side. They retain the true church and the truth. The west and Europe and the Greeks betray everything orthodoxy is. But Russia leads the way of the true church. As a Greek I am ashamed of our orthodox leaders, because they have chosen the path of evil to try take over Ukrainian churches from Patriarch kiril. They let their ppl down telling them to be back or they can’t take communion, to show their mark to enter the church. The Catholics must return back to us. The world must return to orthodoxy and Russia is the last true orthodox country left not overtaken by evil of the west. I hope Russia brings orthodoxy and light to the world and the Greeks return to the path of truth
@@corbandallas6480 All good points. I'm not sure how the true Church(s) will reunite, but I pray they do.
Why are we praying for peace when Jesus bring a sword? It's a waste of time. Im tired of people thinking this world as it is will ever be peaceful. We're better off praying that God can save people and bring to the world his glory through us and through others.
@@FollowTheTrend798 By this logic, why should we desire the salvation of all souls while knowing that most will not choose it?
Because that's the charitable thing to desire. Not to delude ourselves into thinking all will be saved, but still desiring the best for them.
Beautiful beautiful words. Not even 1 min in. I experienced a great conversion. But it’s the spiritual battle that you’ve brought me to and teach me in. Thank you Father! You don’t know me but you’re my spiritual director. God bless you.
“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” But it sure feels like there’s something in the air.
And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, be not afraid, for these things must be; but the end is not yet
Mark 13:17
“When evening comes, you say, ‘The weather will be fair, for the sky is red,’ and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’
You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but not the signs of the times.”
Mathew 16:2 - 3
I feel that something is off to. But we truly don’t know when it will happen and I am sure our ancestors felt the same way during wars like ww2

I’m confused now why Orthodox brothers and sisters are killing each other. But then again, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Even the righteousness of these believers doesn’t stop a massacre like in Ukraine. Now I know why many Christians stand for salvation by faith alone in Christ alone. Better to put your faith in no man, but the resurrected Christ.
Thank you, Fr Spyridon. Your words are always well-chosen and eloquent and pierce the heart. Blessings!
Amen!
Dear Father Spyridon
I am an atheist, and I have been watching your videos for some good time now. I was raised in a Christian household, but then fell away at age 11. I tried to bring myself back to faith, but to no avail. You clearly have knowledge that I don't, and I wish to know from the best on how to return back.
Sincerely, Laudonniere.
Thank you Father, world events remind us of the brevity of this life.
Thank you, Father Spyridon, for this beautiful talk. It took some time to notice this bit in the story of the Prodigal Son: when the son was returning and still a long way off, the Father saw him and ran towards him and embraced him. That has, many times, been a great comfort to me that God is waiting, just waiting, for us to return to him. He is watching always and sees us from a great distance and comes to meet us. What a great God we serve.
I can’t go to church I try and I can’t do it. Please pray for me
Thank you for this respite of Truth during a deluge of propaganda, kyrie eleison. 🙏🏻
Thank you father. God needed me to hear this.
Who are you calling father? This MAN, or your one and only father in heaven?
Please pray for peace in this senseless war in Ukraine, Father
Amen
Amen
Amen
It’s just war between two countries not the end of the world it happened in the Middle East before
Why only Ukraine? What about your brothers in Somalia, Yemen and Sudan who are being bombed into oblivion by the Wild West along with the entire middle east. Don't fall for their propaganda and lies. We're not being told the truth about Ukraine. The US have been staging coups around the world ousting democratically elected leaders and installing globalist puppets. They couldn't care less for the people of Ukraine. They are there like the Russians for resources.
I am reading your book now (Small steps into the kingdom), thank you to one of the comments in another video of yours that praised it. I feel a flame in my heart while reading. I am baptized a protestant, I am living in a part of the world (north Norway) without an orthodox church. I want to be part of the one true apostolic church.
Thank you father. Lord Jesus Christ son of God Have mercy on me the sinner.
Thank you, Father! I converted from protestantism many years ago. Recently I was reminded of what used to be the emphasis on salvation, the conversion, "giving one's heart to God". The protestant dogma has this as a single event in one's life. But recently I came to understand that repentance after every sin is giving one's heart back to God, having already given oneself over to sin. It was an interesting realisation.
Prodestants don't have it as a single event. That's your personal error.
In prodestant churches they repent every week. I've attended many churches and all repent as part of the service and the eucharist. Please don't spread lies.
Yes, I too was protestant and joined the orthodox church the most wonderful thing in my life was the gradual learning to repent and be set free to be whole again a blessing on your day as we wait for his return for us
@@sharonwalters6135 Why didn't you repent as a prodestant. Its a requirement. In fact you have to repent every week 🙄 Live perfect as your father in heaven is perfect. It starts with repentance. If it took "converting" to make you repent, I'm glad you did. But I'm still shocked you didn't bother before.
@@Odo-so8pj Many Protestants believe in once saved, always saved, which is false. That’s what he’s referring to.
Well Father, this from a cradle catholic...Amen and thank you for this talk and advice. May God bless you!
i am a prot, but i really love your teachings thank you!
Thank You father, you have a beautiful way of preaching and are so sincere. Thank you for your teachings!
But now I can feel the darkness, the lie, the perception, the sin around me and everywhere I look.
Jesus I beg you come soon........
From a Catholic who went to confession today, thank you Father; what an edifying message to hear during Lent.
Everyday l choose to chip away at sinning less it is a daily struggle but without Gods words which is spirit where is my will as it becomes devided l see him more and great moments of his love through such miraculous wealth in his power l am healed and reborn to keep fighting for Gods will and not mine.
Such a flawless truth and timely. Thank you Fr Spyridon. I love you! I may never meet you in this life but I will certainly find you in the next!
WHAT EVER YOU DO FOR OTHERS, YOU DO FOR OUR HEAVENLY FATHER"!
I enjoyed hearing this talk Fr , thank you very much.🙏
"The humble are shielded from pride", this line really touched my heart. I love humble people, I personally feel that I need to work on that area.
Yes God's glory is seen all around us on a daily basis. Watching the squirrels and birds eat and move around, what a wonderful God we serve ❤️. and whenever I start to think about His love, I feel so filled 🙏
God bless
Thanks for being here Father. You have a way with words and speak with such authority from both God's word and Holy tradition. I am trying to join in the Church that I attend often, desiring the sacraments. You've played a part in this, thank you so much. Kyrie Eleison
The time to be judged is coming. We are in a period of His grace now but it will end.
Thank you Father Spyridon. The key words in your sermon: " EVERY DAY ......" (1:40)
Amen, God bless you all, my Brothers and Sisters on this Holy Day.
I feel like a man overcome by sin and its all my own doing, I say ill read the bible and dont, go to church but dont and hardly pray and all I think about is god. I must find a way to zap myself out of this slum and get back to church.
I am thankful I found your channel again, maybe this is the start of the answers to my prayers.
Yes, time is running out for us to live out God's purpose for our earthly lives. As a parent, each day I delay shortens my children's time to live out God's purpose for their lives. That's a pretty big consequence if you take time to think about it...and we will be judged for that by God. What we do with our own lives is not done in isolation; think of the butterfly effect.

Pray for my sins father as I pray!!! God bless you! You’re a true spiritual sage! 🙏🏻 ☀️ 🕊
Please pray for me Father.
When I first heard of the parable of the Sheep and Goats, it answered so many things for me. It spoke to me, explained why I was criticized for approaching whoever appeared to need help and what the root of my being was.
I will still help those when needed but I am tired, so very tired, of this world where no-one sees anymore.
Pray for me,please.
Isaiah 40: 28-31 gives me hope.
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Thank you Fr Spyridon for the message. I used to be taught by my grandparents that eating with my left hand was evil, or writing with it, and that I should literally be scared of God. I see now that I'm much older that God is not that way. He is kind and loving, not harsh and judgmental. I love being in His presence now & I could ask for nothing better. :)

Ezekiel 18:21
“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, declares the Lord God. Repent and turn from all your transgressions, lest iniquity be your ruin. Cast away from you all the transgressions that you have committed, and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! Why will you die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Lord God; so turn, and live.”

Please pray for me. There have been many roadblocks to my conversion, some I have created myself, now that I'm ready, external forces are preventing me.
I also feel I lack sincerity
same thing happened to me.... hold on to what is true and don't judge others, indeed rejoice in the difficulties. The difficulties show the enemy does not want this to happen.

How much time are you spending on social media or the internet in general? There are many demons that will drag you into distraction & despair if you let them. Spend more time- hours if you have them- to pray & read scripture & other spiritual works. Pray for St. Jude's intercession in your life (Saint of impossible causes). He has never failed me. Take this challenge- get off the internet for a whole day. Notice how you won't feel like a zombie anymore, depression will disappear. Good luck.

I cannot believe it: I literally failed to resist lust a second ago and I got this notification. Father, I am so ashamed...
Pick yourself up, repent with all your heart and ask forgiveness - "ask and ye shall receive".
I'll do the same, Lord have mercy on me, a sinner.
God loves you and He's ever willing to receive you
its ok u can just ask Him to help you stop doing it and be honest with Him
God's mercy and love awaits you. May you fall into His embrace in repentance.
Prayed for you.

Lust is my final sin to overcome, but I am looking for love because I need to find a wife. I will lust after her won’t I?

AMEN Father Spyridon!! Come soon LORD Jesus Christ & have mercy on us. Praying for peace & protection for Ukraine people and Russian people.🙏☦🕊🙌🙏
Almighty and Merciful Father,
Have mercy on you children.
There are many of these that I know of - one you can use from older (read: longer) pre-Communion prayers (God give me the strength to do these through and with focused mind!), one that is supposed to be used halfway between your scheduled Confessions during fasting periods or however often your Spritual Father recommends them outside emergencies, one for your Holy Angel, one from concluding prayers from the Russian style of personal Compline, and this, to the Holy Spirit:
"O Lord, Heavenly King, Comforter, Spirit of Truth, show compassion and have mercy on me Thy sinful servant, and loose me from mine unworthiness, and forgive all wherein I have sinned against Thee today as a man, and not only as a man, but even worse than a beast, my sins voluntary and involuntary, known and unknown, whether from youth, and from evil suggestion, or whether from brazenness and despondency.
If I have sworn by Thy name, or blasphemed it in my thought; or grieved anyone, or have become angry about anything; or have lied, or slept needlessly, or if a beggar hath come to me and I disdained him; or if I have grieved my brother, or have quarreled, or have condemned anyone; or if I have been boastful, or prideful, or angry; if, as I stood at prayer, my mind hath been distracted by the wiles of this world, or by thoughts of depravity; if I have over-eaten, or have drunk excessively, or laughed frivolously; if I have thought evil, or seen the beauty of another and been wounded thereby in my heart; if I have said improper things, or derided my brother’s sin when mine own sins are countless; if I have been neglectful of prayer, or have done some other wrong that I do not remember, for all of this and more than this have I done: have mercy, O Master my Creator, on me Thy downcast and unworthy servant, and loose me, and remit, and forgive me, for Thou art good and the Lover of mankind, so that, lustful, sinful, and wretched as I am, I may lie down and sleep and rest in peace.
And I shall worship, and hymn, and glorify Thy most honourable name, together with the Father and His Only-begotten Son, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen."
from Ethiopian Orthodox God bless u🙏✝️
The greatest gift God can give is his soul.
Eternal kingdom's treasures will be inherited equally for all believers who have lived on earth a righteous life. This is just part of what we will earn for being loyal soldiers of Christ. Imagine how joyous life would that be living in glory forever.
Yes Jesus is speeding up time in order to cut the time short as in when he will come and save us. For unless he cuts the time short or speeds up time to its conclusion concerning our salvation we will be destroyed. For Jesus said unless I do so, no one will be left alive.
Father you represent the calming voice, however we that watch and listen must see your strength of your message.
God Bless
God’s had enough of His Godless children and churches being silent to the destruction of the vulnerable babies children and elderly ❤️✝️🙏

In my humble opinion, this was the finest video you have made...

One day at a time and every moment, be prayerful and realize when temptation comes.
May you gather strength in your battle.

Not yet, Padre. God bless!! - "Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God."
II Thessalonians 2:1-4 NKJV
This message resonates with my heart and yet Jesus said to call NO man father...
I'm a bit worried as recently I've been constantly sinning in my dreams. I repent for them, but it is rather unsettling. Seems like more I try give up my sins and vices in the "real" world, the more vivid, strange and sinful my dreams get. Including things I have never and would not do in real life. I also never seem to remember God in my dreams, like I'm a different person. One of the dreams included a graffiti on a wall that mentioned Jesus though. It said "If Jesus comes, come".
Isn't remembering dreams bad tho? Saint Macarius, the Great has a prayer that mentions protection from dreams and obscure thoughts. I think it's really bad to think about them, they're fueled by the passions just like evil thoughts, If we manage to control our passions the dreams will also reduce
It's always best to forget dreams as soon as you wake. I consider it like being forced to watch a disgusting movie when you are a child. Obviously, committing a sin in your dreams is not a real sin but the devil's delusion.
