“The crown is fallen from our head: Woe unto us, that we have sinned! For this our heart is faint; For these things our eyes are dim. Because of the mountain of Zion, which is desolate, The foxes walk upon it. Thou, O Lord, remainest for ever; Thy throne from generation to generation. Wherefore dost thou forget us for ever, And forsake us so long time? Turn thou us unto thee, O Lord, and we shall be turned; Renew our days as of old. But thou hast utterly rejected us; Thou art very wroth against us.” – Lamentations 5:16–22 “And … Continue reading Turn thou us unto thee

This is the attitude in which we conquer, it is our victory-robe, it is for us a … Continue reading Call us…Sarmenticii

“For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: “AWAKE, YOU WHO SLEEP, Arise from the dead, And … Continue reading Awaken…
