"If a man's deeds are not in harmony with his prayer, he labors in vain. The brother said, ???What is this harmony between practice and prayer??? The old man said, ???We should no longer do those things against which we pray. For when a man gives up his own will, then God is reconciled with him and accepts his prayers.??? The brother asked, ???In all the affliction which the monk gives himself, what helps him??? The old man said, ???It is written, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."??? (Ps. 46.1)" The Strong, St. Moses the Black. "Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord, bless His name; Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day." Psalm 96:1-2 Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
