Seek What Is Better
eek what is better
than you are so that you can be made better by it. If you desire gold,
you may or may not obtain it. But you can always possess God whenever you
wish.
Desire God so that you may have him, and then finally you will be really happy. This alone will make you truly happy. Love this, possess this; you can have this when you wish and without cost.
-- Commentary on Psalm 32, 16
Prayer. My faith, O Lord, which you gave me through the humanity of your Son, calls upon you.
-- Confessions 1, 1
