Archpriest Dimitry Smirnov. (№ 427265)

to you. We love a person, for example, but he does not go to church. We want him to walk too. It's clear. Well, how? Persuasion is useless - this is not a small child that you will swaddle and bring to communion. No, he does not walk, he rests like a bull. What to do with him? Just pray, pray for a long time, maybe a decade. Then the Lord - He Himself promised - will fulfill our prayer.
