Wednesday quote

“Overall, the Christian and Orthodox view is that the world is full of genuine suffering. We cannot deny it, dismiss it, ignore it; we cannot pretend that it’s an illusion, or that people get what they deserve for deeds in previous lives. Instead, we are compelled to take positive action, bringing healing wherever we can and comfort where we cannot.” Frederica Mathewes-Green, At the Corner of East and Now p. 73
