+ We must not trust in our own wisdom but in the Lord alone. For He directs a person’s steps. We are also called to show Him our ways, to reveal our plans to Him. For they aren’t made straight by our own work, but by His assistance and mercy. – St. Jerome #copticorthodox #christ #godsplan #salvation
