Lessons by our Holy Fathers
As the bodily eyes see everything clearly, so to the souls of the saints the beauties of the Godhead are manifest and visible, and Christians are mingled with them and think upon them.
To the bodily eyes that glory is hidden, but to the believing soul it is clearly revealed - the soul which was dead, which the Lord raises out of sin, even as He wakens the dead bodies also, and prepares for it a new heaven and a new earth, and a sun of righteousness, giving it all things out of His own Godhead.
St. Macarius the Great
