Yesterday I was crucified with Him. Today I am glorified
with Him! Yesterday I died with Him. Today I am made alive with Him! Yesterday
I was buried with Him. Today I rise again with Him! To Him who suffered and
rose for us, let us offer — what? Maybe you’ll think I’m going to say we should
offer Him gold, silver, costly tapestries, or crystal-clear precious stones.
But such things are the earth’s mere vanishing stuff, forever limited to this
world, generally owned by bad people — the world’s slaves, the bondsmen of this
world’s Prince.
St Gregory Nazianzen
