Thaisbeanaidhean Dé: The Manifestations of God in Time
A.D. Brock Adams God speaks. This is the first and most fundamental claim of any living spiritual tradition. But the manner of that speaking — the forms through which the divine makes itself intelligible within the world of time, flesh, culture, and memory — has never been singular. The Thaisbeanaidhean Dé — the Manifestations of God — are those moments in which the eternal becomes legible: when divine wisdom, justice, beauty, or love takes on a face, a name, a story, and a place […]https://ardnemeton.ca/2026/06/10/thaisbeanaidhean-de-the-manifestations-of-god-in-time/

Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit
We unworthy ones will never be silent, O Theotokos, telling of Your miracles, for if You had not come before us praying, who would have delivered us from so many troubles? Who would have kept us free until now? We will not depart from You, O Lady, for You always save Your servants from all dangers.
Both now and ever and unto the ages of ages
Amen

I am an agnostic. I do not know whether there are gods and goddess or not. But sometime, I find reading prayer book to be very calming.
Especially those prayer to the Theotokos; the Holy Mother of God.

Despre apostatul Mar Mari Emmanuel, care îl pomenește la slujbele lui pe ereticul Nestorie ca „sfânt” https://c.aparatorul.md/09awl #încarnareaLogosului #Biserică #Cuvântul #dioprosopism #Dumnezeu #Ecumenist #Erezianestoriană #erezie #IisusHristos #Logosul #MaicaDomnului #MaiciiDomnului #MarMariEmmanuel #NăscătoareDeDumnezeu #Nestorianismul #Ortodoxie #SfinteiTreimi #SinodulIIIEcumenic #Theotokos

This #Episcopalian is here to remind y'all that #EvangeliKKKals don't like to talk about Mary much at all
Which isn't to disagree with the OP's lovely & ironic point 😏
Just to reflect that minimizing the role of the #Theotokos who sang the revolutionary #Magnificat seems to lead to disempowering all women 🤔😒

#HauteCuisine at #LondonBroncos vs #WiganWarriors yesterday, at #AFCWimbledon's lovely ground. Note the little bit of edible paper stuck on top with the Wombles' double-headed eagle logo on, which is historically derived from back in 1894 when local businessman Constantine XVII (pron "Ksveee") #Palaiologos willed his family fortune to the club after receiving a vision of the #Theotokos smashing one into the back of the net while disguised as #LawrieSanchez. #Rugby #RugbyLeague

Apse and sanctuary of the "double church" or "Church of Mary" at #Ephesus. It's believed that the Council of Ephesus was held here in 431. It was the first church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the #Theotokos

Your birth, O Theotokos, brought joy to the whole world, for from you dawned the sun of righteousness, Christ our God. Freeing us from the curse, He gave us His blessings. Abolishing death, He granted us eternal life.

Seasonal #Kontakion in the Second Tone
O Protection of Christians that cannot be put to shame, mediation unto the creator most constant: O despise not the voices of those who have sinned; but be quick, O good one, to come unto our aid, who in faith cry unto thee: Hasten to intercession and speed thou to make supplication, O thou who dost ever protect, O #Theotokos, them that honor thee.

O Fervent intercessor, Mother of the Lord Most High, thou prayest for all to thy Son, Christ our God, and thou causest all to be saved who have recourse to thy powerful protection. O Sovereign Lady and Queen, help and defend all of us who in troubles and trials, in pain and burdened with many sins, stand before thy most pure icon in thy presence, and pray to thee with compunction of soul, contrition of heart, and with tears, and who have unflagging hope in thee. Grant to all what is good for us, deliverance from all evil, and save us all, O Virgin Theotokos, for thou art a divine protection to thy servants.

Let us run, O ye peoples, to that quiet and good haven, to the speedy helper, to the ready and warm salvation, to the Virgin's protection. Let us hurry to prayer and hasten to repentance; for the most pure Theotokos poureth out of us unfailing mercy, anticipateth our needs with her help, and delivereth from great disasters and evils her upright and God-fearing servants.

O Lady graced by God, you reward me by letting gush forth, beyond reason, the ever-flowing waters of your grace from your perpetual Spring. I entreat you, who bore the Logos, in a manner beyond comprehension, to refresh me in your grace that I may cry out, "Hail redemptive waters."

O Theotokos, your church is like the Garden of Paradise, since it pours out healings and cures like ever-living rivers. We come to it with faith, and we draw strength and eternal life from its water, through you who are the Spring that received Life himself. For you intercede with Christ our Savior, who was born from you, and you entreat Him to save our souls.

We ever thank you, O all-holy Theotokos, * and magnify you the all-pure one; and we worship * and extol your divine Son, Maiden highly favored. * All-merciful Virgin, therefore we cry aloud * unceasingly praying, Save us, since you are good. * Snatch me out from the frightening * examination of accounts * by demons in the hour of trial. * May we your servants not be ashamed. Amen.

Today is the fountainhead of our salvation and the manifestation of the mystery which was from eternity. The Son of God becometh the Virgin's Son and Gabriel announceth the good tidings of grace; Therefore, let us cry to the Mother of God with the Angel: Rejoice, O woman, full of grace; the Lord is with thee! #TheAnnunciationOfTheVirginMary #Theotokos #BlessedVirginMary #VirginMary #MotherOfGod #MaterDei

For about a year or more, I’ve been slowly working on this #icon of the blessed #Theotokos using #Procreate. I adapted a #coptic image and made adjustments to depict #Christ and #Mary in a way that blends traditional #Christian imagery with #Hawaiian colors and symbolism. I think it might be finished.

0 Theotokos and Virgin, rejoice, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, for thou hast borne the Saviour of our souls. #OrthodoxChristian #ChristianPrayer #Theotokos (orthodox Hail Mary!)
