O people, God's creation, know the Creator. He loves us. Know the love of Christ, and live in peace, and rejoice the Lord with this. He graciously awaits everyone to Himself.

Turn to Him, all the peoples of the earth, and offer up your prayers to God; and the prayer of the whole earth will go to heaven like a beautiful quiet cloud illuminated by the sun, and then all the heavens will rejoice, and sing a song of magnification to the Lord for His sufferings, with which He has saved us.

Know, O nations, that we are created for the glory of God in heaven, and do not cleave to the earth, for God is our Father and loves us as dear children.

The Merciful Lord gave the Holy Spirit to earth, and by the Holy Spirit the Holy Church was established.

The Holy Spirit revealed to us not only the earthly, but also the heavenly.

By the Holy Spirit we have come to know the love of the Lord. The love of the Lord is ardent. The holy Apostles, filled with love, flowed around the entire world, and their spirit longed that all people would know the Lord.

The Prophets, the beloved of God, delighted in the Holy Spirit, and therefore their word was powerful and pleasant, for every soul wants to hear the word of the Lord.

Oh, a miracle. And the Lord did not despise me so many sinners, but gave me by the Holy Spirit to know Him.

Give me, O Lord, a humble spirit, so that I may always thank Thee that Thou hast given the Holy Spirit to earth. And I remember Him. He Himself helps me to remember Him.

O Holy Soul! O great Tsar. What shall I, a sinful earth, repay Thee? You have revealed to me an incomprehensible secret. Thou hast made me know the Lord my Creator. Thou hast made me know how immensely He loves us.

The Lord loves us so much that it is impossible to explain it, and only by the Holy Spirit can this love be known, and the soul inexplicably feels this love. The Lord is by nature good and merciful, meek and gracious, and it is impossible to describe His kindness, but the soul feels this love without words, and always wants to be in such a quiet state.
