Knowing Christ & the Power of His Resurrection

Daily Devotionals from the writings and sermons for Father Matta El Meskeen

This is an excerpt of the daily devotionals I translate from Arabic from the Book "The Bible in reality of our life" for the late Father Matta El Meskeen.

"My brethren be attentive to me..The resurrection, as a divine action, is a great responsibility, and this divine Mystery will never work in us unless we understand that resurrection is an action of life and a message we accept now to live by and preach; not wait for at the last day as Mary and Martha thought. (John11:24)"

How to live the resurrection?

Daily Devotionals from the writings and sermons for Father Matta El Meskeen

This is an excerpt of the daily devotionals I translate from Arabic from the Book "The Bible in reality of our life" for the late Father Matta El Meskeen.

"How do we live the resurrection practically? First, through our vertical connection with Christ; as a personal relationship based on love, faithfullness and obedience.  Second, through inner detachment and estrangement from the lust of world and disengagement from its bonds; then the power of resurrection will flow and we move from death to life."

"To ask for what is above where Christ is sitting means to ask for being permanently present in the presence of God, which became an everlasting right for us in Christ.  Being present in the presence of God is the secret of happiness that Christ gave us in midst of the world sadness and the somber crippling of humanity"
