A psalm is a city of refuge from the demons, a means of inducing help from the angels, a weapon in fears by night, a rest from toils by day, a safeguard for infants, an adornment for those at the height of their vigor, a consolation for the elders, a most fitting ornament for women…a psalm implies serenity of soul; it is the author of peace, which calms bewildering and seething thoughts. For it softens the wrath of the soul, and what is unbridled it chastens. A psalm forms friendships, unites those separated, conciliates those at enmity. Who, indeed, can still consider as an enemy him with whom he had uttered the same prayer to God? – St. Basil the Great #orthodox #orthodoxy #orthodoxchurch #christian #wisdomofthefathers #stbasilthegreat #kingdavid #davidtheprophet #psalmody #psalms #prayer #unity A photo posted by Wisdom Of The Fathers (@wisdomofthefathers) on Feb 24, 2016 at 10:50pm PST
