Patristic Quote for the Day

In His love for man God became man so that He might unite human nature to Himself and stop it from acting evilly towards itself, or rather from being at strife and divided against itself, and from having no rest because of the instability of its will and purpose. - St. Maximos the Confessor, *First Century of Various Texts* par. 47 (Philokalia II:174)
