Saying of the Desert Christians: Abba Epiphanius 1
Some thoughts
I am really not at all sure what to make of this Saying. "Reward?" It is not the giver who is rewarded, but the receiver. Is it the reward of humility? The humility of knowing a dependendence on another? Ashamed of needing another? What does the Lord God receive in secret? Our prayers? Our worship? Our service to each other?
Have to say, "the presence of the angels, the archangels and the righteous" sounds wonderful. Very inviting.
