Thought for the Day – 17 December
Loyalty to friends is an important part of being a Christian and St Olympias suffered for hr loyalty to St John Chrysostum. Her friendship was a great comfort to him in his suffering, as his letters show and his friendship was a support to her own sufferings.
Friendship is something that should be cherished and nurtured.
Looking at so many saints who accomplished great things and from whom we learn now – in our time – most had great friendships on which to rely and which were their help and comfort, both in their spiritual and temporal lives.
St Olympias and St John Chrysostum Pray for us!
