Let us bring such people into the presence of the Lord to change their will into wine, so they are no longer like water and become a source of joy for themselves and others.This is the love better than wine which takes our weak nature to the new life and carries the power of life. – St John Chrysostom. . . #lovebetterthananything #greatestlove #fillsourheart #satisfiesus #supportsourweaknesses #coptic #dailyreadings #orthodoxy #copticorthodoxy #orthodox #greatestjoy
