Encouragement from St. Augustine


Alas for me! Through your own merciful dealings with me, O Lord my God, 
tell me what you are to me. Say to my soul, I am your salvation. 
Say it so that I can hear it. My heart is listening, Lord; 
open the ears of my heart and say to my soul, I am your salvation. 
Let me run towards this voice and seize hold of you. 
Do not hide your face from me: let me die so that I may see it, 
for not to see it would be death to me indeed.
This, friends, is perspective.
