Lesson from the Epistle of Saint Paul to the Ephesians 5:8-19
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as
children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness,
righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather
expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are
done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest
by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says:
"Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you
light." See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise,
redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with
the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.
