“Our fear is not from an external enemy because our real enemy is inside us; everyday we risk an inner war. If we triumph in this inner war, all the wars that come from outside will be weak; there will be no external enemy to fear. So we have to submit the inside to the dominion of the spirit.” Abba Youanes, Bishop of Gharbiah • • • #coptic #orthodox #dailyreadings #sayingsofthefathers #faith #orthodoxy #copticorthodox #christianity #liturgy #gospel #praise #grace #hope #faithful #copticfathers #saints #ukmidcopts
