My mom showed me this quote by Augustine so I thought I would share it with you:
"Suppose God proposed to you a deal and said, 'I will give you anything you want. You can possess the whole world. Nothing will be impossible for you... Nothing will be a sin, nothing forbidden. You will never die, never have pain, never have anything you do not want and always have anything you do want - except for just one thing : you will never see my face.' Did a chill rise from your hearts, when you heard the words, 'you will never see my face'? That chill is the most precious thing in you; that is the pure love of God." -Augustine

Wow. Nice quote. I wonder how many of us in our hearts would want to take the deal?
Great quote!

That is a great quote! It reminds me of the Parent\Teen retreat.
