Patristic Quote of the Day

How great is the multitude of his sweetness which he hides from those who fear him but which he reveals to those that hope in him! For we understand only in part until that which is perfect comes to us. To make us worthy of this perfect gift, he, equal to the Father in the form of God, became like us in the form of a servant and refashions us into the likeness of God.—St. Augustine, Homily for the Feast of the Nativity
