“ 'For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.' (2Cor. 5:21) In His death, Christ bore the enmity of the whole world. In doing so, He entered into every hatred and element of bitterness in our lives. St. Sophrony said, 'Christ has descended into the lowest hell and is waiting for His friends to meet Him there.'
We cannot know the One who is love apart from love."

“Wait for the Lord, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the Lord!”
Psalms 27:14
“For we are God’s co-workers; you are God’s field. God’s building.”
1 Corinthians 3:9
Tomorrow will worry about itself; today has enough trouble of it's own.
The righteous have no sorrows that are not turned into joy, as sinners have no joy that is not turned into sorrow.
