Patristic Quote of the Day

And since the fact that we are called to an eternal inheritance, that we might be fellow-heirs with Christ and attain to the adoption of sons, is not of our deserts, but of God's grace; we put this very same grace in the beginning of our prayer, when we say Our Father. -- St. Augustine, On the Sermon on the Mount, II, par. 15
