"To fall in love with God is the
greatest of all romances;
to seek
Him, the greatest adventure;
to find Him, the greatest human achievement."
~ St

“If you believe
what you like in the gospel, and
reject
what you don't
like, it is not the gospel you
believe,
but
yourself.” - St. Augustine of
Hippo
"In 397, or twelve years after his
conversion, Augustine wrote his Confessions, the greatest spiritual
autobiography ever written. It is the work of a teacher who explains, a
philosopher who thinks, and a theologian who instructs. It is the work of a poet who achieves chaste beauty
in the writing, and a mystic who pours out thanks for having found himself in
peace. " - Ven Fulton J. Sheen in St Augustine of
Hippo
St
Augustine, pray for us!
