St. John of Kronstadt Tells Us a Wonderful Thing About Our Health
“It is a wonderful thing that, no matter how much we trouble about our health, however much care we take of ourselves, whatever wholesome and pleasant food we eat, whatever wholesome drinks we drink, however much we walk in the fresh air, still, notwithstanding all this, in the end, we are subjected to maladies and corruption; whilst the saints, who despised their flesh and mortified it by continual abstinence and fasting, by lying bare on the earth, by watchfulness, labours. unceasing prayer, have made both their souls and bodies immortal”
