I [wisdom] yield grace like a vine, & my flowers produce the fruit of glory & riches. I am the mother of fair love, & fear, & knowledge, & holy hope: I therefore, being eternal, am given to all my children who are named by Him. Come to me, you who desire me, & take your fill of my fruits. For the remembrance of me is sweeter than honey, & my inheritance is sweeter than the honeycomb... He who obeys me will not be put to shame, & those who work with me will not sin. (Sir 24:17-22 OSB)

DAILY CONTEMPLATION

January 16, 2025 ~ Tobe 8, 1741

One… may ask, “What is good? What is the nature of good? And where does it come from?”
Well is it that you have understood that it is your duty to ask this.
I will answer your inquiries, and will say:
That is good which you cannot lose against your will.
For gold you may lose even against your will, and so you can a house,
honors, and even the health of the body.
But the good whereby you are truly good,
you neither receive against your will, nor lose against your will.
St. Augustine
