Quote

Leaving behind vain glory in a quiet cell, I merely pray, fully humbling myself strictly in imitation of Christ.

Greeting

I sought peace everywhere, but found it only in a quiet corner with a book.
To follow Christ is the highest form of learning.
On the day of judgment, you will not be asked what you read, but what you did.

Roll Call

I respond with a humble heart.
I have finished my prayer and come. I am ready.
If it is the Lord's will, I shall follow.

Deploy

Take up the cross and advance!
Follow the inner light and go forward!
Humility is your armor. Advance!

Victory

It would not have been possible without God's grace.
Whoever conquers himself has conquered the world.
All glory belongs to the Lord alone.

Draw

Do not be angry when others do not follow your will. Neither can you control yourself.
I shall find the way again in stillness.
Patience is a more precious virtue than victory.

Defeat

Pride was the seed of defeat.
Trial is the fire that tempers the soul.
Compared to Christ's suffering, this is nothing.

Strike

Break the chains of temptation!
Shatter them with the power of prayer!
Crush the arrogance!
