Commemorating the Uncovering of the relics of St. Seraphim of Sarov (Aug.1/July 19)
Father Seraphim advised to always have the memory of God and for this to continually invoke the name of God in the heart, repeating the prayer of Jesus: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner." “Let this be,” he said, “all your attention and training! Walking and sitting, doing and standing in the church before the beginning of the service, entering and proceeding, keep these things constantly on your lips and in your heart. By calling upon the name of God in this way, you will find peace, attain spiritual and physical purity, and the Holy Spirit, the source of all good, will dwell in you, and He will rule you in holy things, in all piety and purity.
