o not go outside yourself but turn back within. Truth dwells in the inner self. And if you find your nature given to frequent change, go beyond yourself.

Move on, then, to that source where the light of reason itself receives its light.

Prayer. I acknowledge you, O Lord, in your humility, that I may not fear you in your glory. I embrace you in your lowliness. For to those who desire you, you come in clemency.

From John E. Rotelle, O.S.A., Augustine Day by Day: Minute Meditations for Every Day Taken from the Writings of Saint Augustine. Catholic Book Publishing Co. New York, 1986.
