Patristic Quote of the Day

O Son of God Who hast promised us new life and the heavenly kingdom: remove from us all harm, that Thy grace might dwell in us, so that in the day of Thy coming we might come out to meet Thee in accordance with Thy good will, that we might behold Thee and stand before Thee with joy. -- St. Ephraim the Syrian, A Spiritual Psalter, #106
