Augustine For Today

APRIL 5 – SAINT VINCENT FERRER

“Wherever the burning brand is turned, the flame knows no other road, but to seek the sky. Fervent in spirit, set yourselves alight with the fire of charity; get yourselves white-hot with the praises of God and the excellence of your morals. One person’s warm, another cold; let the warm person kindle the cold; and let the one who is lacking in ardor desire an increase, pray for assistance. The Lord is always ready to give; let us choose to receive with open, expansive hearts.”

Sermon 234, 3
