St. Isaac the Syrian: The commandments of God are greater than all the treasures of the world

Jesus Christ, the "Pearl of Great Price" (source)

 
The commandments of God are greater than all the treasures of the world, and for whoever keeps them, God is found within them. To men, poverty is abominable, but to God, the prideful soul and the high-minded and conceited nous is more abominable. Wealth is honored by men, but God honors the humbled soul!
-St. Isaac the Syrian

Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
