Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. ~ Jesus Christ (John 14:27)

Christ is in our midst! He is and ever shall be!

Even (and especially) during these troubled times we live in… the Holy Spirit pours Love and Light into our hearts, divinely nourishing us with Joy, and His Peace from Above. Effused with gratitude, let us remember to lift up our noetic eyes, to whence comes our Help, Who made heaven and the earth. May the fragrance of our prayers and praises arise to the heavens as holy incense, and touch the stars.

Happy Saint’s Day Anastasia!

With gratitude on Remembrance Day to all who’ve served and continue to serve – protecting Canada and our freedom. Thank you for your courage service and sacrifice.

The Heavens Declare

Central Vault – Cross in Starry Sky, 5th century church; Mausoleo Galla Placidia – Ravenna, Italy in 2006

Whether we acknowledge that God exists or deny it, still He exists. He ceaselessly declares concerning Himself through the book written by His finger: nature…

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaimeth the work of His hands. (Psalm 18:1)…

“I asked the luminaries of heaven;” says one church writer: “Are you God? And they answered: No. I asked the air: Are you God? And it answered: No. I asked the forests and groves: Are you not God? And they answered: No. And then all things cried out together unanimously in a loud voice: No, we are not God, but we were created by Him!”

~ St. John Maximovitch, Shanghai – 1937
