Venerable #Sophian of Antim, a spiritual father during Romania's communist era, exemplified unwavering faith amidst persecution. Once, a secret police officer visited him, intending to intimidate him into silence. Sophian, with disarming gentleness, offered the officer tea and spoke of #God's love. The officer, deeply moved, left without uttering a threat, forever changed by the encounter.
Holy Sophian, pray that we may have such courage and tenderness in the face of adversity.
