Sometimes we fall in despair, thinking that our sins are to big for God to forgive us. That we have walked in wicked ways for to long, and that we are never able to restore our relationship with God again. For me personally St. Mary of Egypt shows me how merciful God is. Something a man cannot understand easily. Yes we read it in the Bible, but sometimes we fall so deep that it looks like we will never get out of darkness anymore. Thank God i found out about those Saints. Their stories are grace-filled. May the Lord protect you all in these wicked times!
I still feel very guilty for an act of apostasy...I was raised Jewish but became a traditional Catholic when I was younger. When my beloved father died, I went back to Orthodox Judaism as a way of trying to keep my dad "alive" in my life...but Christ showed me Jesus in the ancient Jewish texts I studied....the Tanakh as well as the Zohar and other writings. Once God has set His sights upon you, He does not let go. I feel so ashamed for my years of apostasy, yet I returned to Christ with such a deep faith in Him that I didn't have before.
It sometimes seems as if these situations of deep despair and suffering are created on purpose so that we will search for him. I also read something wonderful recently which said that if you have been sitting in a dark room for a long time, and suddenly go outside in bright sunlight, you can’t take the sunlight and shut your eyes. And that this is exactly what’s happening when God’s grace shines on us. We may experience it as an inner darkness because, ironically, we are unable to bear the brightness of that light … we are not used to it. And maybe this is what the purpose of spiritual penances and prayers is … to enable us to take in more and more of that light.
why dont you directly pray to JESUS God himself? why do you need to pray to a human beings to send prayers to God?? The Bible never instract us to pray to Jesus's mother or the vatican illuminati.
@@yh10359 We do pray to our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ - to God His Father, and to the Most Holy Spirit - the entire Trinity. Lord Jesus tells us, “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you...” (Matthew 5:44) The Holy Apostles James writes to us, “Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.” (James 5:16) The Lord Himself, and His Divinely-inspired disciple commands us to pray for each other - even if they are enemies that despise us. So if we can pray for enemies, why can’t we pray for those who ask us? James tells us that the act of asking other to pray to God for us, and praying for each other, not just for ourselves, gives us healing. The importance of this is repeated throughout the Holy Scriptures. So really there is no reason to be opposed to asking other to pray to God for us. But why ask saints or the Mother of God, you might ask? Well, Holy Apostle of Christ James also tells us, “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” Clearly the prayers of those who are close to God are more powerful than the prayers of us, the very sinful people. The saints are not dead. They are alive in Christ, Him having made His sacrifice so that we many live. They are with God right now, in full communion with Him. They are the cloud of Witnesses (Hebrews 12:1). They have worked miracles - just like Elijah in the desert. And since they pray ceaselessly (1 Thessalonians 5:17), we ask them to pray for us. This is why we ask saints to pray for us.
@@yh10359 Why do you have a friend put in a good word for you to another friend? Why do you ask other people in your church to pray for you? It's not necessary, and we can and do go directly to God very often. The thing is, the saints are people far more accomplished in God than we are. They have done amazing things through their faith and with His help. Further, just because they are dead doesn't mean they're gone. All the saints, as well as all the Church who died are *still with us and participate in communion and praise right alongside us.* So by asking a saint to pray for you, you really are just going to another member of your church congregation and saying, "Hey, I'm having a problem that you've dealt with before. Please pray for me."
@@yh10359 did you ever ask a friend (or your pastor) to pray for you? Why? Have you ever prayed for (on behalf of another? Why? In the same way, the dead in Christ are in God's presence and can pray on your/my behalf TO GOD. This is why we ask for intercession.... please pray for me, a sinner.🙂
I relate to Mary’s story a lot. The world chewed me up and spat me out, I have nowhere else to go but to God. Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner 🙏
I know how you feel. There are some people whom God has chosen for Himself, that the only love they feel is God’s love, and the world, their interactions with other people, is a sharpening block for the steel of their soul, and that constant grinding is unpleasant, it is a cross. But that same God repurposes our steeled souls for good. A sword can take a life or save it.

You forget your only saving grace through Jesus Christ The Savior of the unaverse. This is a bewitchment of the highest degree. I pray for you decieved friends and future brothers and sisters IN CHRIST. Do you people think Jesus prayed to Mary! Work it out logicaly and scripualy for the love of God!
I was a wrech like saint Mary of Egypt. So given to passions and lust, but the Lord Jesus had mercy on me. Only he can change sinners to saints. Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me a sinner and have mercy on us all in the day of judgment. Amen.
Me too! I feel so tormented by it and have been for many years. But I never give up my faith in God and pray for forgiveness and mercy. I chastise myself for my lack of willpower, and yet, I remember that this is how God made me. It is hard to understand why. Constant prayer and rememberance is the only way. One must never think that one is too sinful and is beyond saving. That is the only silver lining in this cloud. Best of luck to you in your journey.
This sin creeps upto you fast. I deal with it myself. And St. Mary of Egypt is one of the ones I truly look upto and admire. Thank you for making this one.
St. Mary, please pray for me. May I repent from my shameful lusts and desires that pull me from Christ. May the Holy Theotokos enlighten and deliver me from the demons that entice me, a sinner.
Wow. I didn't expect to get so emotional watching this. Beautiful, and absolutely inspiring. St. Mary of Egypt, please pray for us all as Great Lent comes to a close, and for all of our days on earth.
GOD knows how hard it is to kick an addiction. I'm Roman Catholic and pray to her constantly, especially on her April 2nd feast day on our liturgical calendar, that she cure me of my addictions. St. Mary of Egypt pray for us!
Have faith, dear child of God, like the paralytic at the pool of Siloam. Believe and you shall be saved. Christ broke my chains, through the intercessions of St Mary of Egypt and St Paisios the Athonite. God bless you.
I've only been an inquirer for about a year. Grew up with an addiction from the age of 7. I've spent thousands on therapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, workshops, and 12 step recovery. I've never been able to kick this addiction until I came to orthodoxy. Its been a long time since I've relapsed. It is still a temptation but barely like it was. I had no choice but to do it before. I'm in the true hospital for the sick, and I'm taking the medicine prescribed. Glory to GOD in the highest, peace and good will toward men. 🎉🎉🎉🎉 God bless you brother.
@@Pilgrim06thank you so much in sharing this for I struggle with addiction and 2-8-24 I had 10 days sober and fell today. Your sharing has given me such hope I started right away asking for st. Mary of Egypt to intercede and will continue. I am 64 and RC BUT LOVE THE DESERT FATHERS AND MOTHETS FOR YEARS. GOD THANK YOU FOR YOU SHARING.
This is absolutely heart-shaking. Her humility is striking my pride in the face. Tears are in my eyes thinking of her story 😢 Pridelessness truly is a heavenly quality given by Grace of the Lord 🙇🏾♀️
Please Bless me St. Mary of Egypt, for i have lived a life of sin. I've changed my ways, am married, a mother, but i spent an entire summer years ago living on the street. The things that happened were horrible and i still have nightmares.
St. Mary of Egypt is my patroness saint. She led me to Mother Church. Thank you for making this amazing video. Too few know of her amazing and beautiful story which truly shows the glory and magnitude of God's mercy and love for us, especially the repentant sinner. Thank you again.
Wow! What a powerful opening! Very well written and very tastefully done in light of St. Mary of Egypt's past, as well as showing what true humility is like without sensationalizing it. Thank you so much for blessing us with your wonderful works! May God continue to bless you with your endeavors instructing and guiding others in the Orthodox Faith. 🙏💕☦️🕊
Strangely I felt so heavy and empty today, I am feeling relief through this video. I am not sure why. I have thought of her once in a while I had briefly heard her story in the desert before. Maybe i should pay more attention. This video is giving me some relief from physical and mental exhaustion
I prayed to her today..... I was a slave to my flesh and to my sins 😔 I was a son of the Devil 😔 I begged her to pray to our Lord and God for I was thinking about sex a lot when in school and was looking at women with my lustful eyes...... Pray for me siblings! Pray for me, an unworthy sinner! Κύριε Ιησού Χριστέ ελέησον με!
I hope you're okay, wherever you are. May you stay safe and strong out there. May you take care of yourself, and others, as much as you can. I pray whatever happens to you, may you fight the Good Fight and keep the Faith. God Bless you. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have Mercy upon us, sinners.
I like how we say “human transformation through repentance”, as if they were two different things, when “repentance” (metanoia - the transformation of the individual’s consciousness into the likeness of God via the enlightening of their nous) in itself is the transformation of the human.
Thank you for your enlightened work and for bringing us so many lives of our Holy Saints. It is rare that I do not cry from the depth of my heart and soul whenever I view each of these videos, and then again watch them with my young family of six. I have long ago dedicated a chapel in my home to glorious Saint Mary. I pray that you continue in your blessed endeavours. I also humbly pray for all the precious souls who commented about their love for our Holy Saints and our All Holy Panagia and our +Lord+.
an amazing story of deep repentance and rejection of the world. oh Saint Mary of Egypt, Holy Mother of Egypt, please pray for us, unworthy though we be!
St Mary of Egypt - what a moving story! St Mary was blocked going into the church. That reminds Jesus’ parable. Two men praying at the Temple. The priest praying “ Lord I’m not like this sinner-man.....” However, the man bowed his head and prayed “ Lord I’m indeed a sinner” he was in repentance. We all are sinners and fallen short of the glory of God.
Thank you very, very much for this beautiful post! I first read the story of Saint Mary of Egypt about 10 years ago, and I was immediately struck at the conversion because it reminded me of the importance and the blessing that stems from turning away from anything that is not of God.I am a man who desires to draw closer to God and others and it is a struggle for me. So hearing the story again encourages me to never give with striving to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. God bless you!
Only a contrite humility, qualifies every sinner for a "Pious Communion with Divinity" . When d Spirit is Strong, d Flesh Transforms. Scars n Sins fade n God grants Eternal Glory out of d depth of Hades. Rare Jewels of God.♥️🙏.
Through your Holy Divine Services and your films about the Holy Saints, I am so happy to be able to be a patreon Trisagion. May the Lord continue to bless your ministry.
Very touching video! Reminds me when I was on vacation in Arizona. I asked our Lord what did Prophet Ezekiel mean, 'thus you shall know I am the LORD YOUR GOD.'
Thank you for this moving story, beautifully told. I understand her shame and pain. Blessed be God through our Lord Jesus Christ, who draws near to sinners with mercy and healing. Amen.
Guilt and shame are completely different than accepting the reality of our own history and failures. Redemption doesn't free us from reality. Salvation doesn't release us into some kind of mystical otherness where we can pretend our struggles are over. Unhealthy guilt and shame keeps us away from Christ. Healthy guilt and shame that is rooted in repentance, retrospective living, and awareness of our sin leads us continually to Christ and His Church with all It's grace. Acceptance of reality has only one contrast... prideful arrogance. Repentance with humility is the path to salvation.
@@paisiosjones1300 Agreed. Redemption frees us from our sins - the Christian life should be one of constant repentance but also one of constant redemption. Guilt and shame are, like sin, realities that we deal with and are freed from day by day by surrendering to God and His love for us. We should always remember the joy set before us, and the light that makes sense of the darkness and is not defeated by it.
I come back to this video every once in a while to listen to this amazing repentance story. It fills me up with hope and love. Keep making these videos please, may God be with you.

I first read the story of Saint Mary of Egypt about 10 years ago, and I was immediately struck at the conversion because it reminded me of the importance and the blessing that stems from turning away from anything that is not of God.I am a man who desires to draw closer to God and others and it is a struggle for me. So hearing the story again encourages me to never give with striving to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. God bless you!
Brought tears to my cold heart.
Wonderfully done video. I learned much and will remember St. Mary of the Desert in my prayers.
Saint Mary pray for us!
Saint Mary of Egypt please intercede for us all.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have Mercy on me, a lustful wretched sinner. ☦️
Thank you for such a beautiful and amazing story. 🙏
May God graciously do for me as He did for her. God is amazingly merciful. Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me a sinner.
Only a contrite humility, qualifies every sinner for a "Pious Communion with Divinity" . When d Spirit is Strong, d Flesh Transforms. Scars n Sins fade n God grants Eternal Glory out of d depth of Hades. Rare Jewels of God.♥️🙏.
Thank you so much this wonderful vignette brought tears to my eyes. All your videos do! ☦️🙏🏻

Very touching video! Reminds me when I was on vacation in Arizona. I asked our Lord what did Prophet Ezekiel mean, 'thus you shall know I am the LORD YOUR GOD.'
Orthodox pilgrim sent me. Thanks for the wonderful video.

Thank you for this moving story, beautifully told. I understand her shame and pain. Blessed be God through our Lord Jesus Christ, who draws near to sinners with mercy and healing. Amen.
Saint Mary of Egypt pray for me the filthiest sinner ☦☦☦
no that would be me - St Mary of Egypt pray for us miserable sinners
@@marcokite When do we stop being miserable sinners though? When do we become free of guilt and shame?
@@AbsurdScandal , show me someone feeling guilty and shameful first
Guilt and shame are completely different than accepting the reality of our own history and failures. Redemption doesn't free us from reality. Salvation doesn't release us into some kind of mystical otherness where we can pretend our struggles are over. Unhealthy guilt and shame keeps us away from Christ. Healthy guilt and shame that is rooted in repentance, retrospective living, and awareness of our sin leads us continually to Christ and His Church with all It's grace. Acceptance of reality has only one contrast... prideful arrogance. Repentance with humility is the path to salvation.
@@paisiosjones1300 Agreed. Redemption frees us from our sins - the Christian life should be one of constant repentance but also one of constant redemption. Guilt and shame are, like sin, realities that we deal with and are freed from day by day by surrendering to God and His love for us.
We should always remember the joy set before us, and the light that makes sense of the darkness and is not defeated by it.
Thanks for sharing.Truly an amazing life.Only God...
