Ildar Akzhgitov’s St Nicholas the Wonderworker (date unknown)
Our life is an uninterrupted stream of God’s unspeakable mercies; therefore it should be continually thankful and praise God the Creator and Benefactor; our love for God and our neighbor, God’s image and our fellow member should be especially constant. By loving our neighbor we love God; by respecting every man, we respect the image of God and ourselves.
~St John of Kronstadt
