There was a moment in the Presanctified this week where we sang "the King of Glory enters" - and that caught my attention: He enters not with glory but with humility and for suffering.
Then later at the altar the priest said: "Иисус Христос... Jesus Christ, Conqueror..." - again, without magnificence of a worldly "Conqueror" but with quiet humility, and that pierced my heart as that victory was won by much suffering and death.
And then we sang "taste and see that the Lord is good" - and I saw: because "come, eat, This is My Body broken for you"...
