“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 #readings #coptic #free #orthodoxy #truth #churchfathers #copticorthodox

We have our Father in heaven so let us heed to abide worthy of such an adoption so we may get the inheritance.” St. Augustine #Love #ChildrenofGod #HeavenlyFather #HolyFifty #ChristisRisen #TrulyHeisRisen #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

When a king founds a city if it is attacked by bandits from the carelessness of its citizens he certainly does not neglect it but avenges and reclaims it for the sake of his own honor. How much more did God the Word of the all-good Father refuse to let humans his work go to corruption. He blotted out their death by the offering of his own body and corrected their neglect by his own teaching restoring all that was theirs by his own power – St Athanasius . . #dailyreadings #copticorthodox #coptic #orthodox #holy50
