Remember Me in Your Kingdom: The Life of Abba Moses The Black

#desertfathers
Abba Moses was one of the great desert fathers of Egypt. He lived a wretched life before becoming a monk, even leading a band of thieves. But in time, he repented and spent the rest of his life in an ascetic struggle to purify himself. He was guided by Abba Macarius the Great and Abba Isidore. The title of this video comes from the one thief who hung on the cross next to Christ, "Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom."
Saint Moses the Black (330-405), (also known as Abba Moses the Robber, and the Strong) was an ascetic monk and priest in Egypt in the fourth century AD and a notable Desert Father. The name Ethiopian comes from two Greek words Etho(αἴθω) which means to burn and Ops(ὄψ) which means face. This was the name ancient Greek speakers called Subsaharan Africans: Burnt Faces.

But remember dear brothers Grace isn’t an excuse to live like the world. May the thoughts & love of Jesus live in the heart of your mind continually always.

[@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858]

It is possible to remember your Father and Christ every moment of the day. It's a choice. You are choosing each moment. If it seems difficult, you are lying to yourself, and arrogantly think you can be apart from what you ARE. Nothing could be easier than doing what God Wills. Deceive yourself no longer in the face of Love, Life and Truth, choosing instead arrogantly, death and guilt and pain. The choice, as always, belongs to you. Choose again.
