I entered (into my inward self) and beheld with the eye of my soul...the Light Unchangeable. Saint Augustine More Quotes by Saint Augustine More Quotes From Saint Augustine To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek him the greatest adventure; to find him, the greatest human achievement. Saint Augustine falling-in-lovefaithgod A Christian is: a mind through which Christ thinks, a heart through which Christ loves, a voice through which Christ speaks, and a hand through which Christ helps. Saint Augustine christianheartthinking If God seems slow in responding, it is because He is preparing a better gift. He will not deny us. God withholds what you are not yet ready for. He wants you to have a lively desire for His greatest gifts. All of which is to say, pray always and do not lose heart. Saint Augustine prayerdesireheart Take care of your body as if you were going to live forever; and take care of your soul as if you were going to die tomorrow. Saint Augustine catholicsoulforever The truth is like a lion; you don’t have to defend it. Let it loose; it will defend itself. Saint Augustine sanitymorallions Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being in love which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Saint Augustine passionloveart Because God has made us for Himself, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him. Saint Augustine godlovejesus Hope has two beautiful daughters; their names are Anger and Courage. Anger at the way things are, and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are. Saint Augustine changebeautifullife Remember this. When people choose to withdraw far from a fire, the fire continues to give warmth, but they grow cold. When people choose to withdraw far from light, the light continues to be bright in itself but they are in darkness. This is also the case when people withdraw from God. Saint Augustine firespiritualgod God of our life, there are days when the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and weigh us down; when the road seems dreary and endless, the skies gray and threatening; when our lives have no music in them, and our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage. Flood the path with light, run our eyes to where the skies are full of promise; tune our hearts to brave music; give us the sense of comradeship with heroes and saints of every age; and so quicken our spirits that we may be able to encourage the souls of all who journey with us on the road of life, to your honor and glory. Saint Augustine lonelyherorunning Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul. Saint Augustine weddingbeautylove Patience is the companion of wisdom. Saint Augustine spiritualpatienceinspirational Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe. Saint Augustine spiritualfaithinspirational Some people, in order to discover God, read books. But there is a great book: the very appearance of created things. Look above you! Look below you! Read it. God, whom you want to discover, never wrote that book with ink. Instead, He set before your eyes the things that He had made. Can you ask for a louder voice than that? Saint Augustine eyeorderbook God loves each of us as if there were only one of us. Saint Augustine faithgodlove God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them. Saint Augustine always-tryinggivinghands There is no saint without a past, no sinner without a future. Saint Augustine equalitysaintpast If you believe what you like in the gospels, and reject what you don't like, it is not the gospel you believe, but yourself. Saint Augustine faithgodbelieve Therefore once for all this short command is given to you. 'Love and do what you will.' If you keep silent, keep silent by love; if you speak, speak by love; if you correct, correct by love; if you pardon, pardon by love: let love be rooted in you, and from the root nothing but good can grow. Saint Augustine speakrootslove-is What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like. Saint Augustine sympathylovelife
