Praise God: Sunday is almost here again! In order to help get us ready for church worship, here are good words from St. Augustine, from his famous, “Confessions.” . . .
“Not with doubtful but with sure knowledge do I love You, O Lord. By Your Word [Christ] You have transfixed my heart, and I have loved You. Heaven and earth and all things in them, behold! everywhere they say to me that I should love You. They do not cease from saying this to all men, ‘so that they are inexcusable.’ But in a deeper way You will have mercy on him on whom You will have mercy, and You will show mercy to him to whom You will show mercy, for otherwise heaven and heart proclaim Your praises to the deaf."
