Wisdom from the Holy Fathers:
One should realize that one deserves every temporal and eternal punishment. Why is this? It is because the infinitely holy and good God has lavished His love on us, but we sin against Him. What misfortune would be sufficient to punish such ingratitude? But the Lord does not visit such misfortune upon us – nothing we suffer is commensurate with what we deserve. The proud human mind says that this teaching is a false image of a cruel god. The humble mind realizes that this is very Good News indeed, for it signifies that God desires our salvation, and that the misfortunes He sends us are not retribution but cleansing, because He wants us to be with Him once more in Paradise. ~ St. Ignaty Brianchaninov, The Arena
