St Peters Orthodox Church

Nov. 2, 2019 - On the Feast of All Souls God gives us such a grace-filled weapon to exhort us to place our lives entirely in Him all of our days so that we might enjoy every incredible benefit of the Kingdom of God forever. That gift is our mortality. We do not know the hour that will be our last nor the day that Christ will return triumphantly when the dead will rise victoriously in Him. To those who remain in active fellowship with Him all of their days, their mortality becomes a joy and anticipation. To those who do not fan the flame of the gift of fellowship with Him, the thought of their mortality becomes a great dread and fear.
