I wonder how they could yell Barabbas instead of Jesus. I wonder how they sang “Hosanna” and days later, “Crucify him.” I wonder how Pontius could wash his hands of it, as though a dirty conscience could be so easily cleaned. But – I am Barabbas, sinner set free. I yell “Crucify him” as I sing praises with ease. I am Pontius, who turned a blind eye to glory. And yet, so Christ still died for me. Still he died, where I should be, a perfect love on that tree. — J.S.

Today we also celebrate our Venerable Mother Genevieve of Paris. Saint Genevieve was born to noble and wealthy parents in Gaul (modern day France), near Paris in 422 AD. As was custom at the time, Genevieve would tend her father’s flock from a young age, keeping vigil and prayer at all times. When she was seven years old, Saint Germanus, Bishop of Auxerre, passed through her village and noticed her. He kissed her on the head and proclaimed to her parents that she would become great in the sight of God, leading many to salvation. Genevieve expressed her wishes to consecrate her virginity to Christ and to take up monasticism, and so the Bishop blessed her and gave her a brass coin with an engraved Cross, telling her to wear no other jewellery around her neck or on her fingers and she obeyed. One time, Attila the Hun was approaching Paris to sack the city, however Genevieve prayed fervently and for no apparent reason, Attila and his army retreated and did not attack. At fifteen years of age, Genevieve entered the monastic life and excelled in prayer and virtue, receiving the gift of clairvoyance and wonderworking, a holy vessel as seen by the Parisians. Possibly the most famous story about Saint Genevieve is when one stormy night, she and her nuns were on their way to church when the wind blew out their candles. The Saint made the sign of the Cross over one of the candles and it was miraculously relit with a bright flame, allowing them to journey safely to the service. Saint Genevieve lived out her days in prayer, vigil, and fasting, living up to 89 years old when she reposed peacefully in the Lord.

*sees this while making a ridiculously long list of chores*

Well. Ok then.

““Take a break from your work now and then and say the Jesus prayer. Excessive bodily fatigue is aggravating. If you tire even the most placid of horses beyond its limits, it’ll kick out. When we’re concerned about things, we can’t realize God’s love.””

— Saint Paisios of Mount Athos

It is better to pray devoutly for your neighbor than to rebuke him every time he sins.
