What is the extent of the believer’s relationship with his family and his brothers and sisters in humanity?

Our pure Christian faith is a calling for us to recover what we have lost because of sin by becoming an icon of God, the Lover of humanity. One must carry all humanity in his heart, even if he is a solitary hermit in a cave in the wilderness or an anchorite who does not look upon another human face for years at a time. This hermit or monk must translate his love into unceasing prayers for every human being in this world to receive salvation and heavenly inner peace. He must not cease from offering fasts and prostrations for everyone, as well as putting this love into action whenever he can.
