I confess that for years there has actually existed within me a desire that one day I would be a cleric, but that has always been accompanied by the uncertainty that age and unworthiness would become an obstacle for this holy service, for this fearful mystery. Always in my prayers I asked God not to bestow this grace on me if I would be not able to maintain such a burden, but the desire and cry within me increasingly grew.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Then he continued saying: &#8220;Today, Your Grace, I stand before you and I promise to you that the advice of the Apostle Paul in the First Letter to Timothy will always be my principles.

Along with the invitation of God you also have the testimony of Christian believers matching the testimony of the clergy. We have known you since your childhood and youth, when the Lord first invited you through the catechism program and the performing of the great mystery of Baptism, whereby you became a member of the body of Christ, of the Church.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Metropolitan at the end of his speech commissioned him, &#8220;The inner life of the shepherd is the secret of the pastoral work. Stay vigilant as God&#8217;s athlete, in the continued race to cleanse the soul from the sinful thoughts, feelings and desires. This means that the shepherd must have the ascetic spirit in the broad sense of the word. Christianity is interwoven with asceticism, as it is reflected in the lives of all the saints. With this spiritual weapon God will bless your efforts and will multiply your gifts, He requires you to give your best, in spite of your shortcomings, with all your spirit and with faith. Thereby you will become worth to hear the voice of God, who invites saying: \u2018Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master\u2019s happiness!&#8217; (Mat. 25: 21)&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\t<br \/>\n\t<span style=\"color:#000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; After the comments of the Metropolitan, the Church was filled with the calls &#8220;worthy&#8221;.
