"Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, even these least, ye did it unto me." - Leo Tolstoy, Where Love Is, There God Is Also
Where Love Is, There God Is Also is a heartfelt and spiritually profound short story by renowned Russian author Leo Tolstoy. Through the character of Martin Avdeitch, an elderly and humble shoemaker, Tolstoy gently explores themes of compassion, redemption, and the transformative power of love in everyday life.
Grieving after the loss of his family, Martin questions the meaning of his existence and struggles with loneliness. Yet, guided by his growing faith, he begins to notice and respond to the suffering of others around him. By performing small, compassionate acts for strangers, Martin discovers profound spiritual truths and recognizes the divine presence manifesting through human kindness.
This timeless parable, deeply rooted in Christian ethics, continues to resonate across generations. Tolstoy's simple yet eloquent narrative provides readers with a moving reflection on empathy, generosity, and the genuine meaning of spiritual devotion. Ideal for students of Russian literature, Christian philosophy, and ethical thought, this classic tale remains a cherished illustration of how love and kindness illuminate the presence of the divine in our everyday lives.
