St Moses of Optina
If we show Mercy to others,
Mercy will be shown to us.
If we show Compassion to those who are suffering St Seraphim of Sarov
(although this is not a Great Deed)
If we have no worries about ourselves at all
we will be numbered among the Martyrs.
for the sake of Love for God
If we forgive those who have insulted us,
and the working of Good Deeds -
not only will all our sins be forgiven
knowing that God is taking care of us -
but we will be Worthy and True Children
this is a True and Wise Hope.

But if we take care of our own business
If we pray from the depths of our heart for Salvation
and turn to God in Prayer
or even a little
only when misfortunes come upon us,
we will be Saved.

If we rebuke ourselves, accuse ourselves
and then we begin to Hope in God,

True Hope seeks only the Kingdom of God . . .
even for this, we will be Justified.

If we are sorrowful for our sins
until it obtains such a Hope.
or if we weep or sigh,
This Hope pacifies the heart

And, as St John Chrysostom said:
If only we lament our sins
He will receive this for our Salvation.

“They stripped him of his clothing,
wounded him, and departed,
leaving him half dead.
“By chance, a certain Priest went down
that road, and when he saw him, he

“Likewise, a Levite – when he arrived
at the place, went and looked, and
passed by on the other side.
“A Samaritan, as He journeyed, got to
where he was, and when He saw
him, He had Compassion.
“And He went to him, and bandaged
his wounds, pouring on oil and

“He set him on His own animal, took
him to an Inn, and took care of
him.
“And the next day, before He
departed, He took out two denarii,
gave them to the Innkeeper.
And He said to him: ‘Take care of him.

For we who Live are always Delivered to
Death for Jesus’ sake, so that the
Life of Jesus also may be manifested
in our mortal flesh.

We have the same Spirit of Faith,

we also believe.

GOD - PSALM 148
Let everything that has breath praise
the Lord. Praise the Lord from the
Heavens; praise Him in the Highest.
To Thee praise is due, O God.
Praise Him, all His Angels; praise Him,
all His Powers. To Thee praise is
due, O God.

for all His Holy Ones.

the Good Tidings of Great Joy:
Heaven sings out the Glory of God!
Praise God in His Saints; praise Him in
the firmament of His Power.
Having seen the Resurrection of Christ,
let us worship Holy Lord Jesus, the
only Sinless One.
Praise Him for His Mighty Acts; praise
Him according to the greatness of
His Majesty.
do not cease to worship Christ’s
Resurrection, for He has Saved us
from our iniquities, Holy is Lord
Jesus Who showed forth the
Resurrection.
Praise Him with the sound of the
trumpet; praise Him with lute and
harp.
for all that He has given back to us?
For us God came among men; for
our corrupted nature the Word
became Flesh and dwelt amongst us:
the Benefactor to the ungrateful; the
Liberator to the prisoners; the Sun
of Justice to those who sat in
darkness; the Impossible to the
Cross; the Light to Hades; Life to
Death; Resurrection for the fallen; to
Him we cry out: O our God: Glory to
Thee!

And very early in the morning, on the
first day after the Sabbath, they went
to the Tomb when the sun had risen.
And they said among themselves: “Who
will roll away the stone from the door
of the Tomb for us?”
And when they looked up, they saw
that the stone had been rolled away -
for it was very large.
And entering the Tomb, they saw a
young man clothed in a long white
robe sitting on the right side; and
they were alarmed.
He said to them: “Do not be alarmed.
You seek Jesus of Nazareth, Who was
crucified. He is risen! He is not here.
See the place where they laid Him.
“So go, tell His Disciples - and Peter -
that He is going before you into
Galilee; there you will see Him, as He
said to you.”
And they went out quickly and fled
from the Tomb, trembling and
amazed. And they said nothing to
anyone, for they were afraid.
No longer does the might of Death have
power to keep mortals captive: for
Christ came down, breaking in pieces
and destroying its power. Now
Hades is bound, the Prophets with
Joy in unison declare: The Saviour
has appeared to those with Faith.
COME OUT YOU FAITHFUL TO THE
RESURRECTION!
All that is beneath the earth, Hades and
Death, trembled today before One of
the Trinity: the earth quaked, the
Gate-keepers of Hades, when they
saw Thee, quailed! All Creation,
rejoicing with the Prophet, sins Thee
a Song of Victory, our Redeemer and
God Who destroyed the power of
Death. Let us shout with Joy and cry
out to Adam and to Adam’s race:
COME OUT, YOU FAITHFUL, TO THE
RESURRECTION!
