OCTOBER 31 Request the Gift of God Himself
Certainly, God has given you much, but you have not yet received the robe of immortality. Why request no more as though you were filled to satiety? If God is good to you because He has given you these things, how much more blessed will you be when He gives Himself to you! Request the gift of God Himself. - Commentary on Psalm 144, 2
Prayer. I call upon Thee, my God, my Mercy, my Creator. I had forgotten Thee, but Thou held me ever in Thy sight. Come, then, into my soul, which Thou have prepared for Thy own reception by inspiring in me a longing for Thy goodness.
- Confessions 13, 1
