DAILY CONTEMPLATION

May 15, 2026 ~ Pashons 7, 1742

You know how it is when some great king enters a large city and takes up his abode in one of the houses there;
because of his dwelling in that single house, the whole city is honored,
and enemies and robbers cease to molest it and subject it.
So, too, has it been with the Monarch of all.
For now that He has come to our realm, and taken up His abode in one body among His peers,
henceforth the whole conspiracy of the enemy against mankind is checked,
and the corruption of death, which formerly held them in its power, has simply ceased to be.
For the human race would have utterly perished, had not the Lord and Savior of all, the Son of God,
come among us to meet the end of death.
St. Athanasius
