“What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.” St Augustine #Love #putothersfirst #FatherBishoyKamel #FatherMikhaelIbrahim #fasting #Lent #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

He honored the Father all the more, not that you may honor him less but that you may marvel all the more. Here we learn that he is truly a son who honors his father more than all else. No one could have honored God the Father more than God the Son. The measure of his sublimity corresponds with the depth of his humility. – St John Chrysostom . #HumbleYourselfBeforeTheLord #Humility #Humble #CopticOrthodox #DailyReadings #Orthodox #Coptic #HumbleYourself
