The Worship Quote of the Week for (03/23/1999):

Desiring God
Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is from St. Anselm. He served as Archbishop of
Canterbury and is sometimes referred to as the "father of scholasticism." He
may be most famous for his "ontological proof" - an attempt to prove by logic
that God exists.

DESIRING GOD
O Lord our God,
Grant us grace to desire you with our whole heart,
that so desiring we may seek and find you;
and so finding you; we may love you;
and loving you, we may hate those sins from which you
have redeemed us,
for the sake of Jesus Christ. Amen.

- St. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109), from PROSLOGION.


[Lord, thank you for seeking us before we knew to seek after you. Thank you
for loving us long before we ever loved you. Amen!]

Have a great week,
