من كنوز الاباء

قال احد الرهبان الشيوخ :
فى احدى المرات شاهدت الشيطان مستلقى فى الانتظار خارج قلايه تلميذى فتطلعت الى داخل القلايه لارى ماذا كان تلميذى يفعل .لقد كان الكتاب المقدس مفتوحا امامه وكان هو مشغولا بدراسته بعمق . وحالما اغلق الكتاب بعد ما انهى قراءته . اندفع الشيطان سريعا لتجربته

once i saw the devil lying in wait outside the cell of my disciple ,said a sagacious elder.so i cast an eye inside to see what my disciple was doing .he had the holy scriptures open in front of him and was plunged deep in study. as soon as he closed the book and ended his reading, the devil rushed in to temp him .
