On Faith and Works... Augustine Style.

Thank you, St. Augustine (ca 400 AD).

"Walking by faith, let us do good works. In these let there be a free love of God for His own sake and an active love for our neighbor. For there is nothing we can do for God. But because we have something we can do for our neighbor, we shall by our good offices to the needy gain the favor of Him Who is the source of all abundance. Let us then do what we can for others; let us freely bestow upon the needy out of our abundance".

Yes.  Let us show our love of God to one another.  It's really that simple.

Saint Mother Teresa, Pray for Us!

In celebration of her canonization this morning, let us remember.

Love begins at home, and it is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the action that we do.”
