“Israel has sinned, & they have also transgressed My covenant which I commanded them. For they have even taken some of the accursed things, & have both stolen & deceived; & they have also put it among their own stuff. Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies” … And Joshua said [to Achan], “Why have you troubled us? The Lord will trouble you this day.”

DAILY CONTEMPLATION

August 9, 2025 ~ Mesore 3, 1741

Whosoever forsakes unity, violates charity;
and whosoever violates charity, how great gifts soever he have, he is nothing.
If he speak with the tongues of men and of angels;
if he knew all mysteries, if he have all faith, so as to remove mountains,
if he distribute all his goods to the poor, if he give his body to be burned,
and have not charity, it is nothing; it profits him nothing (1 Cor 13:1-3).
He possesses all things to no useful end, who has not that one thing
by which he may use all these things well.

St. Augustine
