Let us enter into the race for the sake of the reward on the heavenly work. Let us run to acquire. But what shall we acquire? What is the reward? What is the crown? It so seems to me that what we wish for is nothing but the Lord Himself; He is the Judge of those who strive; and the Crown of the winners. He is the One to distribute the inheritance; and He Himself is the good Inheritance. He is the Portion and the One who gives it; He makes us rich, and He, Himself, is the riches. He reveals the treasure to you, And He, Himself, is the treasure. – St Gregory of Nyssa . . #ourtreasure #runtherace #dailyreadings #copticorthodox #coptic #orthodox #holy50
