Augustine, from his CONFESSIONS…..
What are you then, my God? What, but the Lord God? For who is Lord but the Lord? Or who is God save our God? Most high, most good, most potent, most omnipotent; most merciful, yet most just; most hidden, yet most present; most beautiful, yet most strong, stable, yet incomprehensible; unchangeable, yet all-changing; never new, never old; all-renewing, and bringing age upon the proud, without their knowing it; always working, always at rest; always gathering, but never lacking anything; supporting, filling, and overspreading; creating, nourishing, and maturing; seeking, yet having all things. You love but without passion; you are jealous but never with anxiety; angry, yet serene; you change your works, yet your purpose remains unchanged; you are never in need, yet you rejoice in gains.
