Uncreated Love No. 1 | Orthodox Christian Lightweight Cotton Unisex T-ShirtBut I say to you," the Lord says, "love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, pray for those who persecute you." Why did he command these things? So that he might free you from hatred, sadness, anger and grudges, and might grant you the greatest possession of all, perfect love, which is impossible to possess except by the one who loves all equally in imitation of God. + St Maximus the Confessor

O Archangel Gabriel

And I also ask

let them vanish

to be hung upon the Cross as if He were an evil-doer

without a companion

and be satisfied

For our light affliction

seeing the heaven and heaven of heavens cannot contain him

and to seal his eternal fate either in the heights of Heaven or the depths of hell

Thou wast willingly nailed

and there shall be no more death

nor knowledge
