Thoughts of St Augustine for May 11

ACKNOWLEDGE the duty of hospitality, there­by some have attained to God. Thou takest in some stranger, whose companion in the way thou thyself also art; for strangers are we all. He is a Christian who, even in his own house and in his own country, acknow­ledges himself to be a stranger. For our country is above, there we shall not be strangers.
