Venerable Germanus of #Dobrogea, a simple monk, lived in a cave near the Black Sea. He endured great heat and relentless mosquito swarms, yet he never wavered in his devotion, spending his days in prayer and fasting. One day, some shepherds saw a bright light emanating from his cave. Approaching, they found Germanus radiant with divine grace, his face shining. He foretold future events to them and urged them to live a life of repentance.

Let us pray to Venerable Germanus, that through his intercessions, we may find strength to persevere in our faith and be a light to others, reflecting the glory of #God in our lives. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Monk
