Father Andrey Lemeshonok on how the saints saw themselves.
Are you a fornicator? - Yes.
Are you a drunk? - Yes.
Are you a thief? - Yes.
Are you a heretic? - No.
This is what a holy person says.
"I have committed every sin, and put every impurity into my soul."
"Where the devil is, I will be there."
This is what a person thinks of his spiritual state.
A saint, a holy anchorite, spoke these words.
Obviously, this is beyond our depth.
Applying this level to ourselves would be simply insane.
Let us begin with simply being normal... Normal people who can understand one another.
