A sensible man knows that suffering is not evil but only the manifestation of evil and healing from evil. Only sin in a man is a real evil, and there is no evil outside sin. Everything else that men generally call evil is not, but is a bitter medicine to heal from evil. The sicker the man, the more bitter the medicine that the doctor prescribes for him.
Observe: this is the thinking of a slave trying to convince himself that the whip is good for him. This is the thinking of an abused child who loves the fist that breaks his bones.
Nauseating.
The only thing nauseating here is your attitude. St. Nikolai Velimirovich is truly a man of God who spent his whole life at His service in the most severe ascesticism, so excuse me for believing Him and not you, when he talks about God, because He has theology, which is a constant relationship with God. You are a mere "incurvatus in se" person who has shown no interest in religion and has no ability to sacrifice for anything. I am not telling you how to live your life, but if you want to dwell in your pond of sins do it, but do not talk bad of those who rise beyond their inferiority.
You are disgusting.
