Augustine

20 10 2009

“I was astonished that altough I now love you…I did not persist in enjoyment of my God. Your beauty drew me to you, but soon I was dragged away from you by my own weight and in dismay I plunged again into the things of this world…as though I had sensed the fragrance of the fare but was not yet able to eat it.”

As a follower I seem to distance myself without noticing or meaning too. This is my struggle. I am lacking and always will be but by the Grace of my Lord I am saved and ever so Thankful. I can not wait to be One with my True Love.
To not feel unworthy. To not feel helpless. To not feel a failure. I struggle from my own selfishness and from the want of the things that don’t fill me. Although I pray against them almost everyday they still tempt me. I loathe distraction and the things under the sun.

You are steadfast and forever faithful.
