In heaven….
In heaven, we shall see the truth without any difficulty and enjoy it.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Going to be…
It is not as we are, however, that God loves us, but as we are going to be.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Love is the fulfillment…
Love is itself the fulfillment of all our works. There is the goal; that is why we run: we run toward it, and once we reach it, in it we shall find rest.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Perishable things…
So why do we who must still die still seek our joy in perishable things; why do we put so much futile effort into clutching on to this fleeting life? –Saint Augustine (354-430)
Pure desires and virtuous habits..
It is not by change of place that we can come nearer to Him who is in every place, but by the cultivation of pure desires and virtuous habits.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Sin is caused…
The sin is caused not by the flesh, but by the will of the soul, and the corruption contracted from sin is not sin, but sin’s punishment.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
