Cast all your burdens on Him because He cares for you... (1 peter 5:7)


 

Divine Liturgy | 31.12.2023 Fourth Sunday of Annunciation

حياة التسليم - البابا شنودة

بيد الحب جبلتني

.الرب راعي فلا يعوزني شيء. في مراع خضر يربضني. إلى مياه الراحة يوردني. يرد نفسي يهديني إلى سبل البر من أجل اسمه. أيضا إذا سرت في وادي ظل الموت لا أخاف شرا، لأنك أنت معي. عصاك وعكازك هما يعزيانني. ترتب قدامي مائدة تجاه مضايقي. مسحت بالدهن رأسي. كأسي ريا. إنما خير ورحمة يتبعانني كل أيام حياتي، وأسكن في بيت الرب إلى مدى الأيام.

طوبى للرجل المتوكل عليه


 

Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but it is the LORD who weighs the hearts... Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labour in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain... (Proverbs 21:2; Psalm 127:1)


 

The spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life... Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits... Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven shall enter... (John 6:63; Matthew 7:15; Matthew 7:21)


 

"But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach to you a gospel other than the one you have heard from us then let him be accursed... Woe to them, because they have gone in the way of Cain, and rushed for profit to the error of Balaam, and perished in the rebellion of Korah... They went out from us, but they were never from us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But their departure made it clear that none of them belonged to us..." (Galatians 1:8; Jude 1:11; 1 John 2:19)


 

"A mother's heart knows how her Son's heart beats..."


 

"One does not have to look far to see evidence of Satan’s plan in our world today, as the family is further fragmented and divided in modern culture... Success in life consists of standing without shame before God... The Father's will is always for your good... By your prayers you can bring down the rain of mercy..." (Mar Charbel)


 

"A man who prays lives out the mystery of existence, and a man who does not pray scarcely exists..." (Mar Charbel)


 

مار شربل- يا غافي وعيونك

The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life... I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it. And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told Me to say..." (John 6:63; John 12:49-50)


 

"Lord, to whom shall we go and with You are the words of eternal life..." (John 6:68)


 

"Behind every great Man, there is a great woman..."

“Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts...” (Hebrews 3:15)


 

صلوات تماف ايرينى

Good and upright is the LORD... all His ways are perfect... (Psalm 25:8; Psalms 18:30)


 

ترنيمة عند شق الفجر

..and without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen by angels, preached among the gentiles, believed on in the world, received up in glory... that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father... (1 Timothy 3:16; Philippians 2:10)



"The greatest barrier to the truth is to assume that you already have it..."


 

ترنيمة مبارك انت فى النساء

For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what can one give in exchange for his soul ? (Matthew 16:26)
