Daily Meditations with St. Augustine Quotes

“WE were all perfectly capable of wounding ourselves, but which of us is capable of curing what we’ve done. It’s the same with misdeeds; any of you can wound yourselves, can’t you, whenever you like? But you can’t cure yourself whenever you like. So have a God-fearing mind; be faithfully a Christian; do not be ungrateful for grace. Acknowledge the Doctor; the sick never cure themselves. —Sermon 160, 7”
