Patristic Quote of the Day

He is the Physician. He hung on the cross for you and still is not an avenger. Why do you want to take vengeance? For that is why you bear hatred, in order to get revenge. Look at Him hanging on the cross and with His Blood effecting a cure for you in your weakness. Do you want revenge? Look at Christ hanging there and listen to Him pray: 'Father, forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.' - St. Caesarius of Arles, Homily 35
