Quote/s of the Day – 28 August – The Memorial of St Augustine (354-430)
Father and Doctor of Grace
“To fall in love with God is the greatest romance;
to seek Him the greatest adventure;
to find Him the greatest human achievement.”
“Only the “new” person
can sing a new song to the Lord:
the person restored
from a fallen condition,
through the grace of God.
Let us sing a new song –
not with our lips
but with our lives!”
“You ask what you might offer to God?
Offer yourself!
What does God expect from you,
except yourself?”
“Conquer yourself
and the world
lies at your feet.”
“God does not command impossibilities
but by commanding,
admonishes you do what you can
and to PRAY for what you cannot
and AIDS you that you may be able.”
“God has no need of your money
but the poor have.
You give it to the poor and God receives it.”
“Our life and our death are with our neighbour.”
“Do you wish to RISE?
Begin by DESCENDING.
You plan a tower
that will pierce the CLOUDS?
Lay first the foundation
of HUMILITY.”
