Contemplations
“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.” Matthew 12:25 . “God is one, and Christ is one, and His Church is one, and the faith is one, and the people is joined into a substantial unity of body by the cement of concord. Unity cannot be severed; nor can one body be separated by a division of its structure, nor torn into pieces, with its entrails wrenched asunder by laceration. Whatever has proceeded from the womb cannot live and breathe in its detached condition, but loses the…

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:16 . “Seat yourself before the Lord continually, keeping the memory of Him in your heart, lest having lingered outside His memory, you are unable to speak boldly when you enter in before Him, because boldness with God comes from constant conversing with Him and from much prayer.” St Isaac the Syrian #prayer #throneofgrace #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox #ApostlesFast

Christ will come as if from a banquet; it will be clearly manifested that God dwells as if in feasts and weddings- a befitting thing for Him.

Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. … Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness. . -Hebrews 12:7 and 10 . . You have to be prepared by faith and fear of God to confront any thing and every thing. Let the loss of the things close and dear to you, like the loss of health because of a serious illness, or deprivation of wife or children, not be reasons to confuse you, but rather to keep you.…

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33 . “He allows us also to overcome by looking up to the Head of our faith. We walk the same path that He passed through for our sake. We are not dead because we struggle with death. We are immortal because of our victory. Does death corrupt our bodies? So what? Our bodies will not remain corrupt, but will rather be in a better state. Let…
