“Let us offer our thanks that Jesus has a real body and a real soul. For, if the Lord had not taken the human nature in its totality, humanity would not have been saved.

A person who forgives those who hurt him through love and humility applies and shares one of the Lord’s greatest features.

When the Lord says “…blessed are you”, He reveals His heavenly glory and life which we experience as we practice such acts.” Origen the Scholar #OurLordJesus #washesHisdisciplesfeet #forgiveoneanother #asGodforgaveus #washoneanothersfeet #Love #humility #ThursdayoftheCovenant #Liturgyofthewaters #HolyWeek #HolyPascha #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

Throughout history Judas was not just a person, but he became a symbol of whoever follows his example and his name represented shame on anyone who did what he did… we are definitely not selling You, and if they put the treasures of the world at our feet, we will always remember that You bought us with Your precious blood.
