Standing Together in Prayer
“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned” (Isaiah 9: 2)
The rich accepted poverty to enrich us. The Most High descended to make us ascended. Let us renounce passions and riches. The door of heaven has been opened for us, so let each of us leave our missteps. The light shines, let us move and help the poor (from the Christmas Fast Prayer at the Orthodox Church).
