"The liturgical service takes place on earth, but it belongs to the realm
of heavenly realities. In fact it was not instituted by a human being or an
angel, but by the Spirit Himself, so that those who are still living in the
flesh should think of performing the service of angels. O what mercy, O
what love of God for human beings is at that moment grasped by the hands of
all and does not hesitate to give Himself to anyone who wants to embrace
Him and be bound to Him. He Whom the eyes of faith perceive is possessed by
everyone."
St. John Chrysostom.
"I will love You, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress
and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust." Psalm 18:1-2
Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
