“For we have not an High Priest, who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities. He is not (he means) ignorant of what concerns us, as many of the High Priests, who know not those in tribulations, nor that there is tribulation at any time. For in the case of men it is impossible that one should know the affliction of the afflicted who has not had experience, and gone through the actual sensations. Our High Priest endured all things. Therefore He endured first and then ascended, that He might be able to sympathize with us. But was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. That is, He was persecuted, was spit upon, was accused, was mocked at, was falsely informed against, was driven out, at last was crucified.” St John Chrysostom #JesusChrist #ourHighPriest #tempted #withoutsin #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox

“Give me O Lord, that I believe in You with full faith. Give me that I love and have confidence in You in everything, and to believe that You do me benevolence even if the world is dark in front of me. Let me feel that my mind is much smaller than what is required to understand your wisdom and judgment. I know that You are a doer of benevolences, that You are living, that You see everything and that You are capable of doing everything, and in spite of that my faith often weakens, so help my weak faith.” Pope Shenouda III #faith #hope #trustinGod #AtYourWord #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox
