"The signs accompanying grace are much joy, peace, love, and truth.
Such truth impels man to seek truth. But the signs of sin are
accompanied by turmoil, not joy and love toward God. Take the example
of the plant endive. It looks like lettuce. But the latter is sweet,
the former bitter. Also in the matter of grace, some things resemble
truth, and then there is the very substance of truth. Similarly, there
is the ray of the sun and the sun itself."
St. Macarius the Great.

"Therefore You are great, O Lord God. For there is none like You, nor
is there any God besides You." 2 Samuel 7:22

The Bible reading for the 21st of Toba, January 30th, is:
39 Now Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with
haste, to a city of Judah, 40 and entered the house of Zacharias and
greeted Elizabeth. 41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the
greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was
filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 Then she spoke out with a loud voice
and said, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of
your womb! 43 But why is this granted to me, that the mother of my
Lord should come to me? 44 For indeed, as soon as the voice of your
greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. 45
Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those
things which were told her from the Lord. 46 And Mary said: My soul
magnifies the Lord, 47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. 48
For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant; For behold,
henceforth all generations will call me blessed. 49 For He who is
mighty has done great things for me, And holy
is His name. 50 And His mercy is on those who fear Him From generation
to generation. 51 He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered
the proud in the imagination of their hearts. 52 He has put down the
mighty from their thrones, And exalted the lowly. 53 He has filled the
hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty. 54 He
has helped His servant Israel, In remembrance of His mercy, 55 As He
spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed forever. 56 And Mary
remained with her about three months, and returned to her house. (Luke
1:39-56)
The Dormition of Our Lady, the Virgin Mary, the Theotokos.
Departure of St. Hilaria, Daughter of Emperor Zeno.
Departure of St. Gregorius (Gregory of Nyssa), Brother of St. Basil the Great.
The Bible reading for the 22nd of Toba, January 31st, is: Luke 12:32-44
