Contemplations
The heart itself is only a small vessel, yet dragons are there, and lions, there are poisonous beasts, and all the treasures of evil, there are rough and uneven roads, there are precipes; but there too is God and the angels, life is there, and the Kingdom, there too is light, and there the apostles and heavenly cities, and treasures of grace. All things lie within that little space. – St Macarius of Egypt . . #stmacariusthegreat #mayheintercedeforus #theheart #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox #lent

Contemplations
You called and cried out loud and shattered my deafness. You were radiant and resplendent, you put to flight my blindness. You were fragrant, and I drew in my breath and now pant after you. I tasted you, and I feel but hunger and thirst for you. You touched me, and I am set on fire to attain the peace which is yours. – St Augustine . . #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox #orthodoxy #lentjourney

“The soul that really loves God and Christ, though it may do ten thousand righteousnesses, esteems itself as having wrought nothing, by reason of its insatiable aspiration after God. Though it should exhaust the body with fastings, with watchings, its attitude towards the virtues is as if it had not yet even begun to labour for them.” – Saint Macarius the Great . #FastingAndPraying #GiveToTheLord #Deeds #Fast #Prayer #Lent #Easter #Righteousness #Righteous #Proverbs #CopticOrthodox #DailyReadings #Coptic #Orthodox

“Notice that he did not say according to each one’s faith, lest those who do not have enough faith fall in despair, but he said according to the measure of Christ’s gift. The basic point is that all participate in the baptism and the salvation through faith, and all take God as their Father and have fellowship in the one spirit.” – St. John Chrysostom#oneLord #oneFaith #onebaptism #salvation #lent #greatlent #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
