       Some

     put 

   their 

trust 

in chariots, 

and some in horses, 

but we will call upon the Name of the Lord our God.

* Augustine, Bishop of Hippo and

 theologian, born in 354 in North 

Africa, died in Rome in 430.

You have made us for yours- 

self, O God, & our hearts 

are restless until they 

rest in you

Let 

the  

whole

world 

see & 

know 

that things 

which were cast down are being raised up, and 

things which had grown old are being made 

new, and that all things are being brought 

to their perfection by him through whom 

all things were made…

 

The prayer used on

Good Friday when  the world is the 

blackest, at the great Vigil of Easter when 

the new light of resurrection is lit, and at ordinations.

                         __Psalm 2:8a/Isaiah 40:15a_

Ask 

of me 

& I 
will 
give 
you

the

nations 

for your inheritance… 

Even the nations are like 

a drop from the bucket and 

are accounted as dust on the scales…  

 Hilary 310-368 

Bishop of Poitiers 

who was yesterday,  

        
         There is no space where God is not; space does not exist apart from Him. God is in heaven, 
in hell, beyond the seas; dwelling in all things & enveloping all. Thus 
God embraces, & is embraced by, the universe, confined to no part of it 
but pervading all."
