Christ is Risen! Truly, He is Risen!
“His praise shall be always in my mouth” (Ps. 34:1). The prophet [David] seems to promise something impossible. For, how can the praise of God be always in the mouth of a person? When one engages in ordinary conversations pertaining to daily life, one does not have the praise of God in his [or her] mouth. When he sleeps, he will keep absolute silence. And how will the mouth of one who is eating and drinking produce praise? According to the counsel of the Apostle Paul, the zealous person can do all things for the glory of God, so that every act and every word and every work has in it power of praise. Whether the righteous person eats or drinks, he does all for the glory of God. The heart of such a one watches when he [or she] is sleeping, according to him who said in the Canticle of Canticles: “I sleep, but my heart watches.” For, on many occasions, the visions seen during sleep are images of our thoughts by day. – St. Basil the Great
