Liturgy - Week 5: Monday

Acts 2:42

And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.

Father Dorothius

The more men get closer to God, the more they get closer to one another, and the more they get closer to one another, the more they get closer to God. And the more they depart from God, and preoccupy themselves with materialistic matters, every one of them departs from the other, and accordingly would depart more from God. The same applies to acquiring love: the more we are afar off the love of God, each one of us would depart from the other. But if we love God, the closer we get to Him, we unite with love with our brethren, and the more we do that, we unite with God.
