“What then? Do you command us to live for display and vain glory? Far from it…..but Let your light shine. That is, Let your virtue be great, and the fire abundant, and the light unspeakable. For when virtue is so great, it cannot lie hidden, though its pursuer shade it over ten thousand fold. Present unto them an irreprehensible life, and let them have no true occasion of evil speaking; and then, though there be thousands of evil-speakers, no man shall be able to cast any shade upon you.” – St. John Chrysostom #GlorifyGod #Shine #Light #LightOfTheWorld #SaltOfTheEarth #Coptic #Orthodox #DailyReadings #ChurchFathers
