DAILY CONTEMPLATION
May 12, 2026 ~ Pashons 4, 1742
“Weeping shall be for the evening, but joy shall be in the morning” (Ps 29:6 LXX)
Evening began when the light of wisdom withdrew from sinful man,
when he was condemned to death:
from this evening weeping will tarry,
as long as God’s people are amid labors and temptations,
awaiting the day of the Lord.
“But joy shall be in the morning.”
Even to the morning when there will be the exultation of the resurrection,
which has shown forth by anticipation in the morning resurrection of the Lord.
St. Augustine
