Patristic Quote of the Day

Only yesterday was I in anguish with Christ on the Cross; today am I glorified with him. Yesterday I died with Him; today I receive new life in Him. Yesterday I was buried with Him; today I arise together with Him.

--From an Easter Homily of St. Gregory Nazianzus, cited in *A Short Breviary* p. 740
