Sayings of the Fathers
Quote of the Day
In church I was listening to a reading from the Prophet Isaiah, and at the words, “Wash you make you clean,” I reflected, “Maybe the Mother of God sinned at one time or another, if only in thought.” And, marvelous to relate, in unison with my prayer a voice sounded in my heart, saying clearly, “The Mother of God never sinned even in thought.” Thus did the Holy Spirit bear witness in my heart to her purity.
--Saint Silouan the Athonite, as found inSt. Silouan the Athonite, pp. 391-2.
