“Lord, turn Thou our faces away from the world by the desire of Thee, that we may see it for what it is, and no longer believe in a shadow as in truth. Fashion us anew, O Lord, and renew and give our mind zeal before death, so that in the hour of our departure we may know the purpose of our entrance and departure from this world. And so, having finished that work for which Thy will first called us to come into this life, may we then hope, with our mind full of confidence, to receive those great things which, according to the Scriptures’ promise, Thy love hath prepared in the second, new creation, things the remembrance of which is guarded in the faith of Thy mysteries.” St Isaac the Syrian #WillofGod #oursalvation #HolyFifty #Christisrisen #TrulyHeisrisen #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

“The Lord came fore this reason: to take away the sins of the world; for it is impossible for mankind to get rid of them except through washing them away. Therefore it is necessary for the person who believes not to depart from this world while bearing the old man. As long as a person does not, through faith, kill the old man, bury, and die in him (the old man), then he will go to that place and be punished for his earlier sins.” – St. John Chrysostom #believe #hetrampleddowndeathbyhisdeath #Hehasdeliveredusfromthepowerofdeath #ChristIsRisen #TrulyHeIsRisen #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
