На кому насправді тримається світ — Митрополит Онуфрій

We often rely on our own strength or influential people, forgetting about the real support. His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry, using the example of a great hermit, reveals what is the true foundation of our world. 🌿 Using the example of the Monk Onuphry the Great, who lived in the desert for 60 years, we see how the Lord cares for those who fully trust Him. When a person seeks first of all the Kingdom of God, God Himself sends him everything necessary for life, even in the harshest conditions. 🌿 It may seem that the feat of hermits, hidden from human eyes, does not benefit the world. However, it is their silent prayer that is the spiritual force that brings down Divine grace to earth, gives strength to all living things and protects us from evil. 🌿 The world does not rest on strong rulers, politicians or sages, whose names and portraits are quickly covered with the dust of oblivion. He stands on the prayers of a few righteous people who sacrificed themselves to God and tirelessly ask Him for mercy for all of us. 🌿 May this example inspire us to be humble, not to put ourselves on display, but to cover everything with love for God and neighbor. After all, to those who humble themselves, the Lord gives His grace and strength to pass all earthly trials.
