When Grace is energized in the heart of one who prays, then the love of God floods his entire being to such an extent that he may not be able to take more. This love is then transferred to the love of the world and the human person. His love becomes so powerful that he asks to take upon himself all the suffering and unhappiness of others so that they themselves may be relieved. These are the attributes of Love. But you must keep in mind that prayer energizes them and causes them.
- Archimandrite Nektarios (ROCOR-WR)
