"We who preach & write, do so in a manner different from which the Scriptures have been written. We write while we make progress. We learn something new every day. We speak as we still knock for understanding…If anyone criticizes me when I have said what is right, he does me an injustice. But I would be more angry with the one who praises me and takes what I have written for Gospel truth than I would be with the one who criticizes me unfairly." Augustine
Grace to all, Mark Hamby

Augustine on Prayer

“Prayer,” says Augustine, “is the measure of love.”  He who loves much, prays much. He whose heart is closely united to God, has no sweeter consolation than in communion with Him.
