Augustine For Today

AUGUST 14 – SAINT MAXIMILIAN KOLBE

 “Look at your Lord, look at your Head, look at the model of your life; contemplate your Redeemer: ‘Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass me by.’ In this way he shows his human will; but immediately he brings down his resistance to obedience: ‘However, not my will, but yours be done.’ In the same way ought you to obey the will of God.”

            Sermon 296, 8
