That We Must Meet the Lord Jesus Christ in this Life!
Recently, I read a passage from St Maximos the Confessor that
brought a lot of hope to my heart. Our Orthodox Church Fathers,
like St Symeon the New Theologian and teachers such as Fr John
Romanides instruct us that we must meet Christ in this life. The
eye of our soul, our nous, must be opened before we depart this life,
in order to see our Lord in the next.
