I am disgusted by what’s going on…

I am so disgusted and hurt by all these Anti-Christian and anti-religious blogs on tumblr. Everyone has the right to believe whatever he/she wants, and I am with him in his decision. However, it would be nice to be respectful to the rest of us who choose to believe in Him.

If you have a Christian or inspirational blog (nature, Christmas, music, beautiful pictures, poetry, books, fandoms, anything) please like this post. I don’t promise I’ll follow you, because I already follow around 2.000 blogs, but I will check them out. I want to feel my dashboard with beautiful stuff! :)

If you want some photos of pure religious life of the East, you can follow my secondary blog called Orthodox Way of Life, as well as Orthodox Photos (this one is not mine, it’s the blog of the Church of Veroia, Greece).

Could you please post here your blog’s links?

A big thank you!

With this post, I would like to say to all of you a big “thank you” for your love that you send me. Every single message I receive from you is special for me. Especially I want to say thanks to some specific people:

- My friend Bogdan from Romania, for all his beautiful submissions

- The Orthodox friends from France, Spain, Italia, Mexico, Turkey and all the countries of the world that send me e-mails and messages

- Father Andrew for his support and his prayers

God bless you all!

Another Orthodox priest joined tumblr!

… Namely Fr. Paisius!

His blog is dedicated in his journey through villages, monasteries, and cities of Eastern Europe from July to September, 2012. His blog’s title is: Pilgrim Journey: Serbia to Siberia. I have to say that it is really interesting!

So follow him! :)

Why should a Catholic follow your blog?

Hello dear friend,

Hmm.. I don’t quite understand your question. Well, if anyone, from any Christian confession or religion, feels that my blog’s content benefits his/her soul and brings him/her closer to our Lord Jesus Christ, is free to follow me. But everyone should keep in mind that some of my posts may not be in accordance with Catholicism, as it is purely Orthodox and my views in some specific issues differ from Roman Catholicism. However there are many similarities in the two Christian confessions, for example that we both venerate Mary -with some differences in our beliefs- but in this case in my blog no one will find her name to be slandered, but only great sayings about how important she is and how much we love her. A Protestant, for example, according to his point of view, he maybe disagree with these specific blog’s posts because we honor her, but maybe find some other post interesting.

However, I strongly believe that the teaching of the Fathers, of the numerous old and new Saints and of the elders and eldresses (monastics) are universal and they can bring a small piece of Heaven in the souls of all of us!

God bless you and may the Theotokos intercede for you!

In case you enjoy my personal blog…

In case you enjoy my personal blog, you can also follow my secondary blog which is a photography blog! :D

“Simply Orthodox” is and will be always my first priority. I am trying to post daily 7-10 original posts in order to share my faith with all of you! However I am equally excited about “Orthodox Way of life” as well! It’s a complementary blog with many authentic photos, and some reblogs as well. You can also submit some photos here if you want :)

So, if you are searching for a different blog to see in your dash daily, please visit (and maybe follow) Orthodox Way of life as well!

I send you my love and greetings from sunny Greece! ♥

 This girl really needs our help. We have to do something to give her strength and courage… We have to show her that we care about her! We can’t just pretend that nothing is happening since we know the situation.

Please try to help her..

Please pray… Pretty please…

crying eye

I was searching tumblr and I suddenly discovered tags like self harm, suicide, cutting etc. I am shocked. These people need desperate someone to listen to them, to understand their problem and none is eager to listen. Most of them are around my age.

There is so much pain, so much sadness… I wish I could help somehow.

O Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on these people who suffer.. Protect them… Make them find something to live for… Help them please, you are our Father, please don’t let your children to suffer…

Anyone who find blogs of desperate people who need help, please help them as much as you can. Send them a message to show them that they are not alone and generally do whatever you can… And pray a lot…

So if you have a problem and you want someone to talk to, you are not alone. You have God -our Saviour, Virgin Mary- Jesus’ Holy Mother and all the Saints in who you can pray in order to help you…

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

Everyone who’ll read this post, even if you live far away, when you see this post please pray to Jesus Christ for all the teens who want to suicide. Pray with all your heart. If we pray all together, God will listen to us. All of you pray with these words: Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on all the people who suffer emotionally and thinking to end their lives. Let’s pray together..

What is your opinion about Orthodoxy?

Stoupa church

I just wanted to ask you if you think that Orthodoxy is unique.

-If you are an Orthodox Christian, please tell us what made you to be a Christian Orthodox..? Is there a reason that you are proud of your decision to become Orthodox?

-If you belong in another Dogma (eg. Catholic, Protestant, etc..) or in another religion, do you think that Orthodoxy is special for a reason? (Eg. miracles, teaching, monasticism, etc..) What is your opinion of Orthodoxy?
