"True faith takes root in the heart, not in the mind. He who holds faith only in the mind will follow the Antichrist, but he who carries faith in the heart will recognize him." ☦️St Gabriel of Georgia image

A most blessed feast of our Lord! “He was transfigured, not by assuming what He was not, but in revealing to His disciples what He was, opening their blind eyes and making them see.” ☦️St. John of Damascus Homily on the Transfiguration (PG 96, 564) image

Lots of great commentaries on the Gospels out there, no doubt, but this is my go to for daily devotional reading. Archbishop Averky also has commentaries for Acts of the Apostles, all of the Epistles, and St. John's Apocalypse. Highly recommend picking up the set.

One is not like the other. The priest in an Orthodox Liturgy when consecrating the Holy Gifts: "This is my body broken for you for the forgiveness of sin". ☦️ Pro abortion feminists: My body my choice!😈 John 15:13 KJV — Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

A tribute to the Holy New Martyrs Tsar Nicholas II, Tsarina Alexandra, Prince Alexei, and Princesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria, and Anastasia. Martyred 108 years ago today. May they intercede for us before Christ our God! ☦️

"For love to grow, you have to give it away. A person who does not give away even the little love they have is like someone holding a handful of seeds in their hand and not wanting to sow them." ☦️St Paisios of Mt Athos image

While God is the Indivisible Trinity, divisions occur in mankind constantly… The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit have common thought, common will, common actions. What the Father desires, the Son also desires, and the Holy Spirit also desires. Whatever the Son loves, so do the Father and the Holy Spirit also love. Whatever is pleasing to the Holy Spirit, is pleasing to the Father and Son. Their actions are also common among them, all act in conjunction and in accord. This is not so with man. We are in constant disagreement, we have differing desires. Even a small child expresses his own wishes, willfulness, disobedience to his loving parents. As he grows older, he separates from their more, and so often in our day becomes completely alienated from them. People simply don’t share identical opinions, on the contrary, there are perpetual divisions in all things, quarrels and conflicts between individuals, wars between nations. Adam and Eve, before their Fall, were in full accord and of common spirit with one another at all times. Having sinned, alienation was immediately sensed. Justifying himself before God, Adam blamed Eve. Their sin divided them and continues to divide all of mankind. Emancipated from sin, we approach God, and, filled with His grace, we sense our unity with the rest of mankind. Such unity is very imperfect and lacking, since in each person some portion of sin remains. The closer we approach God, the closer we approach each other, just as the closer rays of light are to each other, the closer they are to the Sun. In the coming Kingdom of God there will be unity, mutual love and concord. The Holy Trinity remains eternally unchanging, all-perfect, united in essence and indivisible. ☦️St. John of Shanghai and San Francisco
