“Accordingly, I beseech you, let us so perform all our actions that we may not fail to obtain such glory as this. To obtain it is by no means difficult, if we desire it, or arduous, if we apply ourselves to it. For, “If we endure, we shall also reign.” What is the meaning of “If we endure”? If we patiently bear tribulations and persecutions; if we walk the narrow path.

The sinner follows another path, not God’s path. The sinner has cut himself off from God through his behaviour, his manner and his will. His will has become something other than God’s will. He begins to want what God does not want. He becomes a person who challenges God fearlessly and breaks His commandments. In breaking God’s commandments, he will have also cut himself off from God’s love. – Pope Shenouda . #AbideInHim #WalkJustAsHeWalked #Abide #CopticOrthodox #Coptic #Orthodox #DailyReadings
