“As though shut in within the gross prison-house of the body, wishes to be loosed, that he may begin to be with Christ. But he that will be set free, let him come to the Temple, let him come to Jerusalem, let him wait for the Lord, let him embrace Him with good work as with the arms of faith. Then shall he be set free, that he may not see death, because he has looked upon life.” St Ambrose #FeastofCircumcision #Salvation #setfree #departinpeace #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
