DAILY CONTEMPLATION
February 9, 2026 ~ Meshir 2, 1742
God’s protection and providence encircle all men,
yet they are not seen except by those who have cleansed themselves from sin
and continually keep their attention on God, and on Him alone.
But God’s providence is especially apparent to them
when they enter into a great trial on behalf of the truth;
for then they perceive it as if seeing it with their bodily eyes
St. Isaac the Syrian
