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 one thing; you will never see my face.” ~ Augustine closed with a question: Did a chill rise in your hearts, when you read the words, “you will never see my face”? That chill is the most precious thing in you; for that is the pure love of God. Here’s the quote it reminded me of~

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 one thing;
you will never see my face.”
