Venerable Paisie, before becoming a monk, served in the army. One night, guarding the armory, he faced a great temptation to steal weapons and sell them. He struggled intensely, but instead of yielding, he prayed fervently all night. Exhausted but victorious, he later attributed his spiritual strength to this trial, which taught him unwavering reliance on God. May his example inspire us to resist temptation through prayer. #Saints #OrthodoxWay #Prayer #Monasticism #Romania
