Often what we do is motivated by fear, often we are fearful of the pain of tomorrow or seeking pleasure of tomorrow. Today we learn that the key to not being fearfully anxious, is to live today and experience God today!

Live Today (Fr Daniel Fanous)

When the paralytic man said that he has no man, Christ became that Man for him. Listen to Fr Daniel as he teaches us that there are two groups in society; either we are lonely and are in need of Christ as that Man, or we are not, and are called to be that man for others.

12. Lent Doxology

Piepnevma - Fr Nathanael Guirguis, Philo Yacoub & Mena Fawzy - Live 6-7-20

His Grace shares with us words from St. Ephraim the Syrian about struggle.

St Ephraim the Syrian said:
"We do well to admire the blessedness of the saints and desire to be crowned as they are, but we are unwilling to imitate their labors and combats. Do you think that they were drowned without labors and afflictions in the same manner as you desire to be? Will you hear what kind of rest the saints had in this life? Some of them were tortured, others had trials of cruel mockings and scourgings, yes, even more of bonds and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted and tormented. The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. Lo, you have heard a few particulars out of many. Such were the accommodations and repose of the saints in this life; and they bore these things with all joy because they looked for those eternal good things which are laid up for them in the heavens, which eye has not seen nor ear heard, neither have they entered into to heart of man.”
