| What, then, is the God I worship? He can be none but the Lord God
himself, for who but the Lord is God? What other refuge can there be,
except our God? You, my God, are supreme, utmost in goodness, mightiest
and all-powerful, most merciful and most just. You are the most hidden
from us and yet the most present amongst us, the most beautiful and yet
the most strong, ever enduring and yet we cannot comprehend you. You
are unchangable and yet you change all things. You are never new, never
old, and yet all things have new life from you. You are the unseen
power that brings decline upon the proud. You are ever active, yet
always at rest. You gather all things to yourself, though you suffer no
need. You support, you fill, and you protect all things. You seek to
make them your own, though you lack for nothing. You love your
creatures but with a gentle love. You treasure them, but without
apprehenshion. You grieve for wrong, but suffer no pain. You can be
angry and yet serene. Your works are varied, but your purpose is one
and the same. You welcome all who come to you, though you never lost
them. You are never in need yet are glad to gain, never convetous yet
you exact a return for your gifts. We give abundantly to you so that we
may deserve a reward; yet which of us has anything that does not come
from you? You repay us what we deserve, and yet you owe nothing to any.
You release us from our debts, but you lose nothing thereby. You are my
God, my Life, my holy Delight, but is this enough to say of you? Can
any man say enough when he speaks of you? Yet woe betide those who are
silent about you! For even those who are most gifted with speech cannot
find workds to describe you.
-Confessions, St. Augustine
