This has been a great, long journey through which God has guided me along. Some steps are like the meadows in the daylight, warm sunny seasons and some in the darkest, long and cheerless nights. Yet, this has been too wonderful for me to understand Thy way, O my Lord!
I behold, how Thy warm hugs and tender voices filling my inmost soul and how Thy rod hast leadeth me into a very beautiful foreign land, the places and times which I have never thought I would be and I have never known in the past. How gracious Thou art O God, that Thou hast given me, Thy unprofitable servant such wonderful gifts: Thy Son, The Lord himself, Immanuel. And Thou has shown me and invited me to The Holy Orthodox Church, to be among Thy saints' Communion both in heaven and on earth. I fall down in my knees for Thy great mercy upon Thy unworthy servant, a terrible sinner!
Even more, Thou, By Thy bountiful Power hast made me known to Thy wonderful servants, the great ones. Through them Thou send forth Thy blessings and reveal Thy Love, Mercy and Protection, both for my earthly and spiritual needs.
Glory to Thee O God, Glory to Thee!
Glory to The Father and to The Son and to The Holy Spirit, both now and ever and unto the ages of ages.
Amín to the prayer of your heart, adelphós mou, and again I say Amín!
