He has filled the hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty. Luke 1:53 . . . “Christ never enriches the one who is rich, nor does He feed the one who is satisfied, nor justify the one who is righteous, nor redeem one who relies on his own power, nor teach a scholar! For whosoever is poor, hungry, sinful, fallen or ignorant, he is the guest of Christ. . . Oh! If the sinner only knew that his rank in God’s eyes is foremost among the cares of the Almighty and His dispensation from eternity; and that the mind of God has been preoccupied, throughout the ages, with his return; and that the entire heaven awaits in expectation for his return, he would never be ashamed of himself, condemn his ability nor procrastinate his return.” – Fr Matta El Meskeen
