The Tree of Life
We bow to Your Cross, O Master, and we praise Your holy Resurrection!
From Matins
Wisdom from the Church Fathers
| What toil we must endure, what fatigue, while we are attempting to climb hills and the summits of mountains! What, that we may ascend to heaven! If you consider the promised reward, what you endure is less. Immortality is given to the one who perseveres; everlasting life is offered; the Lord promises His Kingdom. St. Cyprian |
