Patristic Quote for the Day

"And truly, before God death is sleep; for God raises the dead to life more quickly than someone who is sleeping may be roused from sleep by someone else, and God restores life-giving warmth to bodily members cold in death sooner than a human being can invigorate bodies buried in sleep." - St. Peter Chrysologus, *Homily 34* par. 5
