Patristic Quote of the Day

How does it happen that they were first born of men should be born of God? How is it brought to pass; through whom? "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us." What a wondrous exchange! He is made flesh; they are made spirit.... He shared with us our evil things to give us His good things.—St. Augustine, Sermons on the Lessons of the NT, 71.5
