Patristic Quote of the Day

After Christ had completed his mission on earth, it still remained necessary for us to become sharers in the divine nature of the Word. We had to give uup our own life and be so transformed that we would begin to live an entirely new kind of life that would be pleasing to God. This was something we could do only by sharing in the Holy Spirit. -- Cyril of Alexandria, *Christian Prayer* pp. 2006, 2007
