Many have been deceived by outward appearances and have proceeded to write and teach about good works and how they justify without even mentioning faith. ... Wearying themselves with many works, they never come to righteousness.

Don't be troubled if you don't feel the love of God in yourself, but thing about the Lord, that He is merciful, and guard yourself from sins, and the grace of God will teach you.
Silouan the Athonite
It is pointless for someone to say that he has faith in God if he does not have the works which go with faith. What benefit were their lamps to the foolish virgins who had no oil (Mt. 25:1-13), namely, deeds of love and compassion?
Gregory Palamas
If you can help a person help, if you cannot help - pray, if you do not know how to pray - think about the person in a good way! And this will already be a help, because godly thoughts are also a weapon!
Nikolaj Velimirovic
Let no man's place, or dignity, or riches, puff him up; and let no man's low condition or poverty abase him. For the chief points are faith towards God, hope towards Christ, the enjoyment of those good things for which we look, and love towards God and our neighbor.
Ignatius of Antioch
Do not be quick to talk about three things: about God until you establish faith in Him, about another's sin until you remember your own and about tomorrow until you see the dawn.
Nikolaj Velimirovic
