More Quotes by Augustine of Hippo
God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.
There is no saint without a past, no sinner without a future.
God has promised forgiveness to your repentance, but He has not promised tomorrow to your procrastination.
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.
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.
To withhold forgiveness is to take poison and expect the unforgiven to die.
There is no love without hope, no hope without love, and neither hope nor love without faith.
Beware of despairing about yourself: you are commanded to put your trust in God, and not in yourself.
Patience is the companion of wisdom.
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?
