Wisdom for the day – St. John Chrysostom

May 31, 2013

When we teach our children to be gentle,
to be forgiving,
to instill virtue in their souls,
we reveal the image of God within them.
This then is our task: to educate both ourselves and our children in godliness;
otherwise what answer will we have before Christ’s judgment seat?…
How can we be worthy of the kingdom of heaven?”
