“Believe me when I say, I have never been so sure of my heart in peace as in the times of persecution. For I have confidence that if I should die while suffering for Christ and being strengthened by His mercy, I will find still greater mercy with Him.” – St. Athanasius the Apostolic⁣ ⁣ “Noble is the man who, in the midst of his joy, weeps for those who are suffering. Noble too is the man who, in the midst of his sorrows, sings a song with the joyful hearts. The more a man shares in the feelings of others, the more noble he is.” – H.H. Pope Shenouda III⁣ ⁣ #coptic #orthodox #suffering #martyrs #believe #mercy #21martyrs #faith #hope #joy #peace #orthodoxy #heart #persecution #copticchurch #blessing #noble #saints
