The life of a Christian




The life of the Christian is about loving the good. Seeking true goodness; desiring it deeply; needing it fully.
Hoping in the good,
Loving it,
Desiring it more than anything else; rather than anything else.
Seeking the peace and joy of goodness, rather than your own benefit

Wanting to know God
Seeking to know God
Becoming able to know God
Becoming more akin to the good yourself
Living a life more filled with grace, kindness, charity and love. Being washed through and through of evil, becoming free to be with the good.
Being disgusted by evil
Wanting to have nothing to do with it
Needing the good
Needing it all the time

The truth is this is who you are.


The life of Orthodoxy is about the struggle to seek the most true knowledge of God. It is about knowing what you seek, and how to approach it, as precisely as possible. It is about wasting as little time as possible on error whole you desperately seek the truth that you need.
