Feast of St. John of Damascus, Priest and Doctor ( Died 749)

“What then, is more precious than to be in the hand of God?St JohnofDamascene For God is Life and Light, and those who are in God’s hand are in life and light.” 

                                                  -St. John of Damascus

 

For Reflection:           

If I am in the state of grace (having no mortal sin on my soul), then I am in God’s hand. Therefore, according to St. John of Damascus, I am “in life and light.” Today, I will consciously seek to see the “life” and the “light” in my everyday duties and responsibilities and I will thank God for them in my time of prayer tonight.
