2005.12.04. forget about the work of your salvation, which is worked with the spirit, with love and not with the body, sons. Then be careful at your reading and fulfill everything you understand, and seek to have one for another, one upon the others, holy work before the Lord, so that you may not be idle with the work of the love and with the work of brotherhood, which works one from the other, one for another before the Lord, and do not stay idle together in the name of the Lord, sons. No one of you should take the wisdom from the love of brotherhood; do not take it away from yourselves, but rather take it away from the worries of the brotherly love, so that the devil may not write that you are lovers of yourselves and not of lovers of brothers, sons. Oh, each one of you should love the brothers and not yourselves, because he who loves himself, judges his brother and he always keeps in mind the evil and he does not keep the Lord in his mind. Be faithful, sons who are taught, because here it is what I tell you: he who keeps the evil in mind, he keeps the devil in mind. Be wise, because the grace of the Lord works by love, and it is not seen otherwise in man. Receive in you the truth of the words with grace in them when the grace is given to you by the word of the priest, then when he speaks upon you declaring: (At the Holy Liturgy, r.n.): “May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of the Father God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all,” and you should answer to these gifts with “Amen.” Behold sons, the grace, the love and the Holy Spirit, the Giver; these have to be your work, because you alone say to these: “So be it.” Oh, do not be wise only in your work with your hand, but be skilful at this great work full of longing gifts, because if you do not work that way, then you will not have a soul with peace and with the joy of the grace in it. The grace of the Lord has to become joy and life in you, and for this work you have to give an answer to the Lord, sons. Where there is no work of the grace, there is no fruit of the heavenly brotherhood among you either. The grace has limitless wisdom and you should take from it in order to have. Oh, sons, learn from God, as you have to take after Him, if He teaches you. Read the psalms in your days of feast and perceive them, to humble yourselves before each other, ones for the others, and do not go to sleep anyhow. Oh, it should not be this way, but rather go to sleep embracing the Lord and be at peace with every brother, to have peace in your hearts, and to have, and to have from one another, blessing one another to have the spirit of humility, sons, for behold, the man pays a great price for his pride. Oh, do not lose time in the time of prayer, but rather earn it, and then let it be seen that you have not lost it yet. Stay with the Lord in the time of your prayer, and let it be seen that have sat with Him at the table and that you stand up fulfilling everything the Lord has told you, sons. Behold, it is my day of feast and I spend it setting you a table of teaching, for you need much fulfilling of the Lord’s teaching, because you are not just anyone on earth, but rather you are the people of the Lord’s word. Tremble at the work that you have to fulfill on earth before the Lord, and let the Lord stay within you as He is and not as you are, because the Lord and my Son is the One Who is gentle and humble in His heart, sons. Amen. I have given them the voice of my feast upon them, Lord Son. I have given them Your memorial in them, for You are the Word upon them. But now, send many heavenly powers to them, multiplying the powers of humility, so that You may be able to dwell in them, Lord. Oh, because of the mercy of those who are crushed within the gates, I have reminded Your people today that each one of Your sons to strengthen upon it and in it Your teaching, which You have been giving them for such a long time, that they may be able to multiply Your grace in them, because You have been waiting for them, Lord, but multiply the love and its torch in their vessel, which is the longing, Lord of those who are humble. I have loved Your grace from childhood and I have taking it within Me, Lord Son, and then You have been m
