If we are suffering from cancer

If we are suffering from cancer

If we are suffering from cancer and learn that there is a doctor at the North Pole who can heal us, we would abandon everything, overcome all obstacles—just to reach the healer and be freed from the illness. Neither difficulties nor financial costs would frighten us: we would leave everything and go. Let us humble our soul for the sake of our health. And when the cancer of sin threatens the death of our soul, it is all the more necessary to abandon everything and flee, no matter the obstacles. Let us come, kneel, confess our sin, take the medicine, and be healed!

+ Elder Ephraim of Philotheou
