+ A soldier once asked Abba Mios if God accepted repentance. The wise old man answered, “Tell me, if you tear a precious cloak do you throw it away?” The soldier replied, “No I mend it and use it again.” Abba Mios said, “If you are so careful about your cloak, will not God be equally careful about His own creation?” – From the Desert Fathers #copticorthodox #christianity

“If the Cross had been a sign of weakness, we would have never erected it on our churches and our towers or hanged it round our necks, tattooed it on our hands and drawn it in our writings… The Cross to us is a sign of power, the power of love, sacrifice, self negligence and endurance. This is the real meaning of power…” – H.H.

Believe me when I say, I have never been so sure of my heart in peace time as in the times of persecution. For I have confidence that if I should die while suffering for Christ and being strengthened by His mercy, I will find still greater mercy with Him.” – St. Athanasius the Apostolic • • • #coptic #orthodox #dailyreadings #sayingsofthefathers #faith #orthodoxy #copticorthodox #christianity #liturgy #gospel #praise #grace #hope #faithful #copticfathers #saints #ukmidcopts

“Escape to God alone if you want to escape from Him. Escape by confessing and not by hiding. Tell Him ‘You are my shelter’ and so let the only love, which grants life, to grow inside you.” – St. Augustine. • • • #coptic #orthodox #dailyreadings #sayingsofthefathers #faith #orthodoxy #copticorthodox #christianity #liturgy #gospel #praise #grace #hope #faithful #copticfathers #saints #ukmidcopts
