And this species of the divine patience indeed being, as it were, at a distance, may perhaps be esteemed as among “things too high for us”; but what is that which, in a certain way, has been grasped by hand among men openly on the Earth? God suffers himself to be conceived in a mother’s womb, and awaits the time for birth; and, when born, bears the delay of growing up; and, when grown up, is not eager to be recognized, but is furthermore contumelious to himself, and is baptized by his own servant; and repels with words alone the assaults of the tempter; while from being “lord” he becomes “master,” teaching man to escape death, having been trained to the exercise of the absolute forbearance of offended patience.

I truly enjoyed this! It is such a easy book to follow and apply to one’s life. I felt this story speak to me in such a way through the soothing voice of the narrator that I was honestly lost in thought and contemplation. I cannot express enough how amazing the narrator was at capturing me through his readings! I would recommend this to all my friends and family. I cannot wait for more readings to come! Great job!!!

A must review!
