“Repentance is the change of the inward heart’s direction and also the thought of all man’s potentialities… In other words, when man refuses iniquity and all what is foreign to God, he is then blessed with the heavenly Lord Himself, and all what he has of blessings, gifts that are satisfying.” ~ Fr Tadros Yacoub Malaty #repentance #heavenlykingdom #coptic #copticorthodox #dailyreadings

“The whole of your life does not equate to a twinkling of an eye if compared to eternity which has no end. What is the whole of your life on earth but a preparation and readiness for that eternity, the life of immortality? It is for you then to be convinced of the importance of eternity and to place it always before your eyes, and all things will appear cheap besides it.” – H.H. Pope Shenouda III #beready #beprepared #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
